Tyalgum Beechmont

Beechmont and Tyalgum are both small, rural areas, but they differ in wealth and education. Beechmont has a more qualified workforce, with 57.9% of residents completing Year 12 compared to 41.9% in Tyalgum. This higher education level is consistent with higher incomes; the typical household in Beechmont earns $1,625 a week, which is well higher than the $1,096 seen in Tyalgum.
