Coolah Putta Bucca - Bombira

Coolah and Putta Bucca - Bombira are two distinct areas in New South Wales with very different profiles. Coolah is an older community where the typical resident is 53 and 33.4% of people are aged 65 or over. It is a very walkable area, with 98.9% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school. In contrast, Putta Bucca - Bombira is much younger and more affluent; the typical household earns $3,116 a week compared to $1,244 in Coolah, and 27.7% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, while only 8.8% do in Coolah.

Both areas are effectively alike in that very few people use a language other than English at home. This similarity exists alongside a widening gap in wealth and age since 2011. While both areas have similar rates of outright home ownership, Putta Bucca - Bombira has seen a sharp increase in high-income earners and university qualifications. Meanwhile, Coolah has become increasingly older and more reliant on its walkable layout, as far more residents there live alone or manage long-term health conditions.
