Dardanup Picton East

Dardanup and Picton East are neighbouring areas in Western Australia with very different profiles. Dardanup is a family-oriented community where 20.7% of residents are children and 99.5% of homes are separate houses. Typical weekly incomes are far higher in Dardanup at $1,701, compared to $739 in Picton East. In contrast, Picton East has a much older population, with a typical age of 62 and 48.9% of residents aged 65 and over. It is also a place where many more people live alone (57.7%) and a higher share own their homes outright (50.7%).

Everyday life in both places is very similar when it comes to diversity and accessibility. Very few people in either area speak a language other than English at home, and both are entirely without nearby public transport stops. While Dardanup is mostly car-dependent and Picton East is car-dependent, neither area has homes within a 15-minute walk of health services. These shared patterns persist even as the two areas remain distinct in their age and income profiles.
