Corrigin Kunjin

Corrigin and Kunjin are nearby areas in Western Australia with very different characters. Corrigin is a larger centre where residents are far older, with a typical age of 50 and 33.0% aged 65 and over. It is a somewhat walkable area with a typical weekly income of $1,157. In contrast, Kunjin is sparsely populated and much younger; the typical resident is 34 and 37.5% are children under 15. Kunjin has a more highly qualified workforce and much higher typical weekly incomes of $2,187, alongside a huge share of people working from home at 46.7%.

Both areas are identical in that no one speaks a language other than English at home. While they share this trait, they differ in almost every other way, from Corrigin's accessible health services and schools to Kunjin's car-dependent landscape. These gaps are stark, with Kunjin seeing far higher rates of volunteering and a much larger share of adults working or looking for work compared to Corrigin.
