Cowalellup Toompup

Toompup and Cowalellup are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Toompup has more infrastructure and higher costs, with two schools within 3km and typical monthly home-loan payments that are far higher than those in Cowalellup ($8,300 compared to $1,667). Toompup also has more people per home, with 2.4 compared to 1.7 in Cowalellup, and typical weekly household incomes are a little higher at $1,937.

Everyday life in both places is very similar, as both are completely car-dependent and have no homes within a 15-minute walk of parks, groceries, health services, or schools. This shared isolation is reflected in the fact that neither area has any residents who have served in the Defence Force. While Toompup has a few more public transport stops and routes, both areas remain largely disconnected from such services.
