Qualeup Scotts Brook

Scotts Brook and Qualeup are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Scotts Brook is a younger place, with a typical resident aged 36 and a far higher share of children under 15 (31.5%). It is also more affluent, with 33.3% of households earning $3,000 or more a week, compared to just 11.1% in Qualeup. This is consistent with a higher share of residents in Scotts Brook having completed Year 12 (57.6% versus 46.0%) and a far higher proportion of people caring for children unpaid (57.6% versus 22.2%).

Everyday life in both areas is very similar, as everyone lives in separate houses, no one uses public transport, and no one reports needing help with daily activities. Both are also very high for volunteering compared to the national figure. While they share these traits, the gap in typical age is significant; residents are far older in Qualeup, where the typical person is 48.
