Maya Wubin

Wubin and Maya are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Wubin is the larger of the two, with 90 residents compared to just 20 in Maya. Wubin is a much younger place, where 24.4% of people are children under 15, whereas Maya has no children in that age group. This age difference is reflected in the typical resident's age, who is 41 in Wubin and far older in Maya at 59. Typical weekly family incomes are also far higher in Wubin at $1,812, compared to $1,124 in Maya.

These two nearby areas have tracked similarly since 2011, with both seeing about 15% of their residents move in the last five years. They share a similar lack of local services, as neither has a school within 3 km or homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services. In both places, no residents use a language other than English at home. While Wubin is described as mostly car-dependent and Maya as car-dependent, they both sit well below the national figure for people born overseas.
