Tullakool Wakool

Wakool and Tullakool are nearby rural areas in New South Wales with very different populations. Wakool is much older, with a typical resident aged 49 and 24.0% of people aged 65 and over. In contrast, Tullakool is far younger, with a typical age of 40 and a high share of children under 15 at 30.9%. Economic gaps are also wide; the typical household income in Tullakool is $1,833 per week, which is far higher than the $888 seen in Wakool. Wakool also has more people living alone (36.4%) and a higher share of homes owned outright (61.8%).

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, with neither seeing a significant shift in their overall character. They are both entirely made up of detached houses and are largely car-dependent, though Wakool is slightly more walkable with some residents within a 15-minute walk of groceries and schools. They also share a similar lack of public transport and very low rates of higher education, with both areas sitting well below the national figure for bachelor's degrees.
