Yamba Angourie

Yamba and Angourie (L) are neighbouring areas in New South Wales, though they differ sharply in size and layout. Yamba is a larger, very walkable hub where 87.6% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, while Angourie (L) is a sparsely populated area that is mostly car-dependent. There are significant gaps in education and health; Angourie (L) has a much higher share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher (34.9% compared to 16.4% in Yamba) and a higher proportion of people who finished Year 12 (60.9% versus 40.7%). Conversely, long-term health conditions are far more common in Yamba, affecting 39.0% of residents compared to 26.6% in Angourie (L).

Both areas share a very similar proportion of people born overseas, at around 12%. They are also similar in that a high share of residents in both places are aged 65 and over, with both areas sitting far above the national figure. This shared older profile is consistent with the fact that Angourie (L) has a slightly higher share of people aged 65 and over (43.2%) than Yamba (37.9%).
