Coomalbidgup Gibson

Gibson and Coomalbidgup are both rural areas in Western Australia, but they differ sharply in wealth and education. Typical weekly personal income is far higher in Coomalbidgup at $1,196, compared to $702 in Gibson. This gap is also seen in schooling, where 56% of Coomalbidgup residents completed Year 12, which is far higher than the 33.6% in Gibson.
