Bobalong Dartnall

Bobalong and Dartnall are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Bobalong is more family-oriented, with children under 15 making up 31.1% of its people, while Dartnall has none.

Bobalong also has a higher share of university-qualified adults (40.6%) and more people born overseas (11.1%) than Dartnall. In contrast, Dartnall has a higher typical personal income of $1,025 per week and a much larger share of people working from home at 52.0%.

Daily life in both places is very similar in other ways, as neither area has any Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander residents or people who use a language other than English at home. They both have a similar level of school advantage and no residents who need help with daily activities. These two nearby areas have tracked similarly over time, with both maintaining a population that is much smaller than most areas at this level.
