Donnybrook Greenbushes

Donnybrook (WA) and Greenbushes (L) are nearby Western Australian towns with very different profiles. Donnybrook (WA) is larger and more of a hub, where 52.3% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 87.3% have three or more bedrooms. Greenbushes (L) is a smaller, more residential area where 41.1% of people live alone and residents are noticeably older, with a typical age of 52 compared to 45 in Donnybrook (WA).

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of people providing unpaid care for children, at around 24%. They also share similar levels of people born overseas and a nearly identical proportion of adults with a bachelor degree or higher. While they have much in common, some gaps are widening; since 2011, the difference in the number of people living alone has grown, and the gap in typical weekly incomes has widened to $275.
