Firgrove Yeoval

Firgrove and Yeoval are two small New South Wales areas with very different profiles. Firgrove is a wealthier area where typical weekly household income is $2,446, far higher than the $929 seen in Yeoval. This gap is matched by education and employment levels, with 58.3% of Firgrove residents completing Year 12 compared to 33.1% in Yeoval, and a much higher share of adults in Firgrove working or looking for work. Yeoval is significantly older, with a typical resident aged 53 and 32.6% of people aged 65 and over, whereas Firgrove is younger and only 13.3% are seniors.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of people who completed Year 12, though Firgrove is slightly higher. They are also alike in that almost no one uses a language other than English at home. While they share these traits, they offer different lifestyles; Yeoval is somewhat walkable with many homes near schools and parks, while Firgrove is car-dependent. Over time, the gap in typical incomes has widened significantly since 2011.
