Lamington Mullingar

Lamington (WA) and Mullingar are neighbouring areas in Western Australia with very different layouts. Lamington (WA) is more developed, with far more separate houses (96.6%) and a typical weekly household income of $2,886, which is well higher than the $2,211 seen in Mullingar. Lamington (WA) also has much better access to transport, with 3.44 public transport stops per 1,000 people and a typical 3-minute walk to a stop, while Mullingar has no stops and a typical walk of 83 minutes.

These differences are becoming more pronounced as the gap in Year 12 completion has grown to 13 percentage points. Despite this, the two areas share many similarities in daily life. They have nearly identical typical monthly mortgage payments and weekly rents, and the number of people living alone is almost the same in both places. Both areas also have a higher share of people born overseas than the national figure.
