Boonanarring Gingin
Gingin and Boonanarring are two nearby Western Australian areas with very different profiles. Gingin is a more populated hub with a far higher share of children (23.4%) and seniors (21.6%), which helps explain why 31.2% of people there spend their time caring for children unpaid. In contrast, Boonanarring is sparsely populated and much more diverse, with a far higher share of people born overseas (40.6%) and those using another language at home (34.4%). Qualifications also differ, as Boonanarring has a far higher share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher (29.2%) compared to 14.0% in Gingin.
Both areas are effectively alike in that almost no one lives within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services.

Since 2011, the gap in the number of people who have moved recently has remained, with Boonanarring seeing a far higher share of new arrivals at 46.4%.
