Dwellingup also has a much older population, with 25.6% aged 65 and over, and a higher share of people living alone (34.6%). In contrast, Cookernup is more affluent, with a typical weekly household income of $1,773 compared to $1,125 in Dwellingup, and a higher proportion of large homes with three or more bedrooms (86.4% versus 75.9%).
