Lime Lake Wagin

Wagin and Lime Lake are nearby areas in Western Australia with very different scales. Wagin is a more developed hub where the typical weekly household income is $1,073, while Lime Lake is sparsely populated and has a far higher typical household income of $3,625. Wagin is also much more accessible; it is described as somewhat walkable, with 69% of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services. In contrast, Lime Lake is car-dependent and has no residents within walking distance of health services, schools, or groceries.

These two areas have tracked differently since 2011, as Wagin remains a central point for services and transport while Lime Lake stays largely non-residential. They do share similar landscapes, with both having a mean terrain slope of around 4% to 5%. While Wagin has a larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population, both areas have residents who are older than the national figure.
