Borden Magitup

Borden and Magitup are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Borden is the more developed of the two, described as somewhat walkable, with 98% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 99% near a park. In contrast, Magitup is car-dependent. The two areas differ sharply in income and demographics; the typical weekly household income in Magitup is $2,125, which is far higher than the $725 seen in Borden. Residents in Borden are also far older, with a typical age of 49 compared to 41 in Magitup, and 16.2% of Borden's population are seniors while Magitup has none.

Everyday life in both places shares a lack of public transport and an absence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents. They also both have very small schools and an equal share of people using other languages at home. While Borden has a much higher share of people with no religion (70.3%) and more people born overseas (13.5%), both areas remain small, non-residential hubs where the population is far below the national figure.
