Contine Cuballing

Cuballing and Contine are two nearby Western Australian areas with very different scales. Cuballing has a larger population and more infrastructure, with a walkability score of 2.4 (mostly car-dependent) and nearly half of its homes within a 15-minute-city walkshed. In contrast, Contine is sparsely populated and car-dependent. There is a huge gap in earnings; typical weekly family income is far higher in Contine at $3,249, compared to $1,319 in Cuballing. However, typical weekly rent is far higher in Cuballing at $280, while it is only $150 in Contine.

Both areas are very similar in that no one lives within a 15-minute walk of a school, grocery store, or health service. They also share a similar landscape, with nearly identical terrain slopes. While both are far from the city, Contine is further away, with a drive time that is well higher than that of Cuballing. Outside of their shared lack of local services, the two areas have diverged significantly in terms of income and transport access.
