Hastings Springs

Hastings (WA) and Springs are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. There are significant differences in wealth and age between them; the typical weekly household income in Springs is $3,374, which is far higher than the $900 seen in Hastings (WA). Springs also has a far older population, with a typical resident aged 60, compared to 44 in Hastings (WA). Hastings (WA) has more people per home, with 2.9 compared to 2.0 in Springs.

Both areas are completely car-dependent, as neither has any walkable amenities, parks, or schools within a 15-minute walk. This shared lack of infrastructure is common to both, regardless of the fact that Hastings (WA) is further from the city, with a drive time of 107 minutes compared to 72 minutes for Springs. While they share these similar constraints, the gap in typical personal income remains wide, with Springs sitting far above the national figure and Hastings (WA) well below.
