King Leopold Ranges and Meda are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. There are stark differences in income between them; the typical personal weekly income in Meda is $1,062, which is far higher than the $593 seen in King Leopold Ranges. This gap is even wider for First Nations residents, who earn a typical $900 per week in Meda compared to $257 in King Leopold Ranges.
