Palgarup Ringbark

Palgarup and Ringbark are sparsely populated neighbours in Western Australia. They differ most in their wealth and housing; the typical weekly household income in Ringbark is $2,028, which is far higher than the $1,224 seen in Palgarup. Home ownership is also more common in Ringbark, where 78.8% of homes are owned outright and every single home has three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Palgarup has more people living alone (19.3%) and a higher share of residents with long-term health conditions (31.7%).

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining small residential pockets with very similar proportions of seniors.
