Cootra Darke Peak

There are stark differences in wealth between them; the typical weekly personal income in Cootra is far higher at $949, compared to $590 in Darke Peak. This gap is also seen in families, where the typical weekly income in Cootra is $1,875, which is far higher than the $1,171 seen in Darke Peak. Cootra also has far higher typical weekly rents at $350, while Darke Peak is among the lowest at $96.

Both areas are very similar in their lack of local services, as neither has any homes within a short walk of a school, groceries, or health services. This shared car-dependent nature is a core part of life in both places, though Darke Peak is slightly more walkable with a few more amenity types nearby.
