Bowelling Duranillin

Bowelling and Duranillin are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Bowelling has a higher proportion of people working from home (45.0%) and households earning $3,000 or more a week (19.4%). In contrast, Duranillin has a much higher share of one-parent families (39.5%), people living alone (33.3%), and residents providing unpaid care (22.7%). Health challenges are also more common in Duranillin, where 35.8% of people have a long-term health condition compared to 23.8% in Bowelling.

Both areas are effectively alike in that every home is a separate house and no one uses public transport to get to work.

While they share many characteristics, the gaps between them are notable in education and income, with Bowelling remaining well higher in both typical household income and Year 12 completion.
