Warmun Yarralin

Warmun and Yarralin are both sparsely populated areas with very high Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander populations. Yarralin has a much higher share of people who use another language at home (85.2% compared to 61.9% in Warmun) and more homes without a motor vehicle (70.9% versus 43.4%). Warmun has a far higher share of one-parent families (44.5% against 29.7% in Yarralin) and more people providing unpaid care (28.2% compared to 11.8%).

Both areas are very similar in their typical household and personal incomes, and neither has any homes owned outright. These similarities exist alongside some shifting trends; for example, the gap in the number of people who moved in the last five years has narrowed since 2016. While Yarralin has a higher unemployment rate of 35.1% compared to 22.9% in Warmun, both figures sit far above the national average.
