Madeley Wangara

Madeley and Wangara are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Madeley is a larger residential hub where 25.6% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, and 27.9% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, Wangara is sparsely populated, with a typical resident who is far older at 59. The two areas differ sharply in housing and work; Madeley has far more large family homes, while Wangara has a much higher share of people working from home (35.0%) and those employed as labourers.

Everyday life in both places shares several similarities, including a nearly identical share of children under 15 and people aged 65 and over. They also have almost the same number of public transport stops and similar transit times to the city. While Madeley is far more likely to have residents who completed Year 12, both areas are effectively alike in the proportion of people living alone and the typical monthly home-loan payment.
