Muresk Wilberforce

Wilberforce (WA) and Muresk are both sparsely populated neighbouring areas in Western Australia. They differ sharply in age and wealth; the typical resident in Wilberforce (WA) is 62, while in Muresk they are just 24. Incomes are also far higher in Wilberforce (WA), where the typical weekly family income is $3,250 compared to $1,875 in Muresk. This contrast is reflected in the homes, with Muresk having well more people per home at 2.8, whereas Wilberforce (WA) has only 1.8.
