Kambalda East is a more populated hub with a much younger feel, where 20.7% of people are children and the typical resident is 34. It is also far more walkable (somewhat walkable) than Widgiemooltha (car-dependent), with most homes within a 15-minute walk of schools, parks and groceries. In contrast, Widgiemooltha is sparsely populated and significantly older, with a typical age of 48. While typical household income is far higher in Kambalda East, typical family income is far higher in Widgiemooltha at $4,750 per week.
