Peak Hill Trundle

Peak Hill and Trundle are two nearby rural areas with very different social profiles. Peak Hill has a much larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 34.0%, compared to 9.3% in Trundle. Families in Peak Hill are more likely to be led by a single parent (38.8% versus 21.8%) and the unemployment rate is far higher at 15.8%, while it is only 4.1% in Trundle. Peak Hill is also more accessible, rated as very walkable with 86.6% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport, whereas Trundle is somewhat walkable and has no homes within that distance.

Everyday life is similar in both places, with nearly identical typical weekly household incomes and a similar share of people working from home. The two areas have also tracked in opposite directions since 2011; the gap in typical age has widened as Trundle has become far older, and the difference in the number of people moving into the area has grown. Both areas sit well above the national figure for the share of residents aged 65 and over.
