Batlow Khancoban

Batlow and Khancoban (L) are two small New South Wales towns with very different profiles. Batlow is very walkable, with 95% of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services and 50.1% near public transport. It also has a much higher share of recent overseas arrivals at 11.6%. In contrast, Khancoban (L) is mostly car-dependent and more mobile; 53.2% of its residents moved there in the last five years, and 49.2% say they have no religion, which is far higher than in Batlow.

Everyday life shares many similarities in both places, including a typical weekly rent of $195 and a similar number of people per home. They also have nearly identical shares of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents. While they share these basics, some gaps are shifting; for example, the difference in the number of people who volunteer has widened since 2011, and the gap in those working from home has also grown.
