Lake Austin vs Weld Range

Weld Range and Lake Austin are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Weld Range is home to 69 people, while Lake Austin is largely non-residential with a population of 0. There are very few services in either place, but Lake Austin has one school within 3 km, whereas Weld Range has none. Weld Range also has a larger population of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, with three people compared to none in Lake Austin.

Both areas are essentially alike in their lack of public transport, as neither has any bus or train routes or stops. This shared lack of transit is consistent with the national figure for many remote areas. The gaps between the two places in terms of street connectivity and transport have remained the same since the last census.
