Tumbarumba Corryong

Tumbarumba and Corryong are nearby country towns with distinct profiles. Corryong is more walkable, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of schools (97.8% compared to 66.5% in Tumbarumba), health services, and groceries. It also has a much older population, with a typical resident aged 52 and 31.7% aged 65 and over. In contrast, Tumbarumba has a higher proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people (7.4%) and typical weekly household incomes that are well higher at $1,260, compared to $960 in Corryong.

Both towns share a similar international background, with about 10% of residents born overseas. They also have very similar rates of long-term health conditions and barely any commuting by public transport.
