Cuthbert Marbelup

Marbelup and Cuthbert are neighbouring areas in Western Australia with very different demographic profiles. Marbelup is a younger area where 24.6% of people are children, and it has a much higher share of families, with 32.9% of people caring for children unpaid. This is reflected in the housing, as 87.5% of homes have three or more bedrooms. Marbelup also has a higher typical weekly personal income of $953, compared to $741 in Cuthbert. In contrast, residents are far older in Cuthbert, where the typical age is 48 and 20.4% of the population is aged 65 or over.

Both areas share a very small First Nations population of around 1% to 2%. They are also alike in their lack of local services, with no public transport stops or shops within a 15-minute walk. While Marbelup has seen more growth, with 44.1% of people moving there in the last five years, Cuthbert has remained more stable. This differs from the national figure, as Cuthbert's share of recent arrivals is far below the Australian average.
