Warialda Yelarbon

Warialda and Yelarbon (L) are two small rural centres located about 109 km apart. Warialda is more walkable, with a very walkable score of 6.2, and is far more likely to have homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries (85.5%) and health services (92.5%), whereas Yelarbon (L) has no homes within that distance of either. Other key differences include housing and demographics; 72.4% of Warialda homes have three or more bedrooms compared to 51.6% in Yelarbon (L), and Warialda has a far higher share of people living alone at 38.0%.

Both areas are almost identical when it comes to the typical weekly household income, which is around $900.
