Morawa Perenjori

Morawa and Perenjori are two nearby Western Australian towns with very different own layouts. Morawa is very walkable, with 95.9% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 95.6% near health services. In contrast, Perenjori is mostly car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. Morawa also has a much older population, with 29.2% aged 65 and over compared to 13.1% in Perenjori. This is consistent with Morawa having a far higher rate of people with long-term health conditions, at 29.8% versus 17.0% in Perenjori.

Both towns have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining small centres where daily life is comparable in some ways. They share the same percentage of children under 15 (21.6%) and nearly identical proportions of renters and people providing unpaid care. While Perenjori has a far higher typical personal income for First Nations people, the two areas both sit well above the national figure for typical resident age.
