Orange Spring Hill

Orange and Spring Hill (L) are nearby areas in New South Wales with very different scales and footprints. Orange is a larger centre with more renters (34.3%) and a higher share of recent overseas arrivals (16.2%). It has a more qualified workforce, with 20.7% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, Spring Hill (L) is a small, sparsely populated area where every home is a separate house. It has a much higher share of people providing unpaid care for children (40.0%) and is more car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services.

Both areas are effectively alike in several ways, including a typical resident age of 36 and an unemployment rate of 3.6%. This shared age profile is reflected in their similar proportions of people living alone, which sits at about 30% for both. While they share these basics, the gap in typical weekly family income remains wide, with Orange being well higher at $2,101 compared to $1,562 in Spring Hill (L).
