Bangalow Tintenbar

Bangalow and Tintenbar (L) are nearby New South Wales areas with very different characters. Bangalow is a very walkable hub where 90.8% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, and it has a more mobile population with 49.8% of residents moving in during the last five years. In contrast, Tintenbar (L) is car-dependent and more established; residents there are far older, with a typical age of 47 compared to 39 in Bangalow, and a much higher share of homes are owned outright (57.1% versus 29.4%).

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the proportion of people providing unpaid care. They also share similar rates of people using other languages at home and an almost identical typical monthly mortgage payment of $2,167. Since 2011, the gaps between them have often widened, particularly in the share of people working from home and the number of people who have moved recently, both of which are far higher in Bangalow.
