Dumbleyung Jerramungup

Jerramungup (L) and Dumbleyung (L) are both small Western Australian towns, but they have very different profiles. Jerramungup (L) is a much younger place, with a typical resident aged 33 compared to 50 in Dumbleyung (L). It has more families with children and a higher share of high earners, with 18.1% of households earning $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, Dumbleyung (L) is more settled, with 46% of homes owned outright and a much larger senior population, as 27.3% of residents are aged 65 and over.

Since 2011, the two towns have moved in opposite directions across several key measures. The gap in typical age has flipped, and the difference in high incomes and rental rates has grown.
