Wollongbar Modanville

Wollongbar and Modanville (L) are nearby New South Wales areas with very different living patterns. Wollongbar is the more active and accessible of the two; it is described as somewhat walkable, with 45.1% of residents having moved there in the last five years and 25.0% of households renting. In contrast, Modanville (L) is mostly car-dependent and more settled, with a far older typical resident (47 years compared to 39 in Wollongbar) and a much higher share of homes owned outright at 50.5%.

Both areas are very similar in their typical weekly personal and family incomes, as well as the number of people living in each home. This common ground exists alongside a widening gap in how people access their surroundings. While Wollongbar has many homes within a 15-minute walk of schools and health services, Modanville (L) has almost none, leaving it much more dependent on cars for daily needs.
