Narromine Yeoval

Narromine and Yeoval (L) are two distinct New South Wales towns located about 68 km apart. Narromine has a much larger population and a younger profile, with a typical resident aged 39 and a high share of children under 15 (21.6%). In contrast, Yeoval (L) is sparsely populated and far older, where the typical resident is 53. This age gap helps explain why people needing help with daily activities are far more common in Yeoval (L) at 17.6%, compared to just 5.0% in Narromine. Other sharp contrasts include the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population, which is far higher in Narromine (24.9% vs 9.0%), and the arrival of new overseas residents, who make up 14.5% of Narromine but 0.0% of Yeoval (L).

Both areas sit near the national figure for people with a mental health condition, with Narromine at 8.3% and Yeoval (L) at 13.1%. They also share similar housing styles, as both are mostly made up of separate houses and are considered somewhat walkable. While they have some common ground, many of the differences between them are growing. For example, the gap in typical ages and the difference in the number of people needing daily help have both widened since 2011.
