Bathurst Ulladulla

Bathurst and Ulladulla are two different New South Wales regional centres. Bathurst is a younger area where the typical resident is 37, while Ulladulla is far older with a typical age of 52. This difference is clear in the age structure, with seniors making up 31.9% of Ulladulla's population compared to 18.1% in Bathurst. These demographics link to how people live and work: Bathurst has a much higher share of full-time employees (61.0%) and a higher typical household income ($1,562), while Ulladulla has a much higher rate of outright home ownership at 50.4%.

Everyday life shares some common ground in both places, such as the typical number of people per home and a very similar unemployment rate. Both areas also have nearly the same high proportion of homes within a 15-minute walk of a park. However, other gaps have widened since 2011. The difference in typical age has grown from no gap to 15 years, and the gap in typical weekly household income has increased from $4 to $395.
