Chowerup Mordalup

Chowerup and Mordalup are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Chowerup is much younger and wealthier, with a typical resident aged 43 and a typical weekly household income of $2,125. In contrast, Mordalup residents are far older, with a typical age of 58, and a typical weekly household income that is far below the national figure at $350. Homes in Chowerup are also more crowded, with an average of 3.4 people per home and 1.0 person per bedroom, compared to 2.2 people per home and 0.6 per bedroom in Mordalup.

Both areas are entirely car-dependent and share a total lack of nearby parks, schools, groceries, or health services within walking distance. This lack of local amenities is a common thread for these two neighbours, which sit about 28 km apart. While they share these same infrastructure gaps, Chowerup has a slightly larger presence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, with four residents compared to none in Mordalup.
