Cheynes Nanarup

Nanarup and Cheynes are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Nanarup is much wealthier, with a typical weekly personal income of $1,125 compared to $537 in Cheynes, and it is the only place where some residents earn $2,000 or more a week. There are also stark differences in health and community involvement; people in Cheynes are far more likely to have a long-term health condition (35.1% vs 21.1%) or need help with daily activities (13.5% vs 0.0%), while Nanarup has a much higher share of volunteers at 26.5%.

Everyday life is very similar in both places, as both are entirely car-dependent with no public transport and no schools within 3 km. Both areas have populations that are far older than the national figure, and they share an identical lack of children under 15. Over time, the gap in people born overseas has remained notable, with Nanarup's share remaining well higher than that of Cheynes.
