Warialda Gilgai

Warialda and Gilgai (L) are two New South Wales areas located about 63 km apart. Warialda is more urban in feel, with a much higher share of people living alone (38.0% compared to 23.9% in Gilgai (L)) and more residents who volunteer (18.9% versus 7.9%). It is also a more walkable place; 92.5% of homes in Warialda are within a 15-minute walk of health services, while no homes in Gilgai (L) have this access. Residents in Warialda are also noticeably older, with a typical age of 53 compared to 46 in Gilgai (L).

Everyday life shares many similarities in both places, including almost identical typical weekly household incomes of around $900 to $961 and a similar share of children under 15. They also both have no recent overseas arrivals and no residents who speak only a language other than English. While they share these basics, other gaps are shifting; for example, the difference in the number of people aged 65 and over has widened since 2011, and the gap in the share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people has flipped.
