Goulburn Yerrabi

Yerrabi and Goulburn are two distinct areas located about 76 km apart. Yerrabi is a very walkable place with a young population, where the typical resident is 33 and 36.2% were born overseas. In contrast, Goulburn is mostly car-dependent and far older, with a typical age of 45 and 22.5% of residents aged 65 or over. Education and income levels differ sharply; 42.4% of adults in Yerrabi hold a bachelor degree or higher, compared to 19.9% in Goulburn, and a much higher share of Yerrabi households earn $3,000 or more per week.

Daily life in both places shares a similar focus on family housing, with about 81% of homes in each area having three or more bedrooms. They also have similar unemployment rates, sitting between 3.4% and 3.8%. Over time, the gaps between them have often widened. This is seen in the growing difference in the share of people born overseas and the increasing divide in how many people hold university degrees.
