The Pilliga Yarrie Lake

Yarrie Lake and The Pilliga are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Yarrie Lake has 73 residents, while The Pilliga is largely non-residential with a population of zero. A key difference is that Yarrie Lake has a larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population, with 9 people, compared to none in The Pilliga.

Both areas are entirely car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of a school, park, health service or grocery store. This lack of local amenities is shared across both locations, and the gap between them in these measures has remained the same.
