Taree Coopernook

Taree and Coopernook (L) are nearby areas in New South Wales with very different housing and population patterns. Taree is a larger centre where renting is far more common, at 36.0%, compared to just 9.6% in Coopernook (L). This contrast extends to home types, with 100% of homes in Coopernook (L) being separate houses. Taree is also more diverse and mobile, with 14.3% of residents arriving recently from overseas, while Coopernook (L) has no recent overseas arrivals. Access to essentials also differs; Taree is far more walkable for groceries (63.0%) and health services (33.6%), whereas Coopernook (L) has no homes within a 15-minute walk of either.

The gap in renting has widened since 2011, though the two areas share a few steady similarities. Both have a typical resident age of 45 and almost identical typical weekly household incomes, around $1,000. They also track closely on the proportion of people who identify as having no religion, which is about 37% in both places. This shared profile exists alongside a common trend of having more people with long-term health conditions than the national figure.
