Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 7.8 km apart · Paynedale profile · The Plains profile

Paynedale The Plains

Paynedale and The Plains are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Paynedale is a much younger place, where 35.0% of residents are children under 15, compared to 23.1% in The Plains. This younger profile helps explain why Paynedale has far more people caring for children unpaid (31.9% versus 13.6%) and a far higher share of people in de facto relationships (23.8% versus 9.5%). Paynedale also has a higher proportion of households earning $3,000 or more a week (62.5% versus 36.4%) and far more homes with three or more bedrooms (95.8% versus 77.3%).

These two neighbours are becoming more different as the gap in their age profiles widens. While Paynedale has no residents aged 65 and over, 17.3% of people in The Plains fall into this group. Despite this, the two areas share many similarities; they both have no one using a language other than English at home and neither has any one-parent families. Both areas are also entirely car-dependent, with no one within a 15-minute walk of any amenities.
