Dorrigo Bonville - East

Dorrigo and Bonville - East (L) are two nearby New South Wales areas with very different layouts. Dorrigo is a somewhat walkable place where 87.9% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 86.5% are near health services. In contrast, Bonville - East (L) is car-dependent, and no homes are within a short walk of shops or health services. There are also clear economic gaps; Bonville - East (L) has a far higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (16.0% compared to 5.0% in Dorrigo) and a typical household income that is well higher at $1,375 per week.
