Bunbury - North-East
21 km²
Spread across 21 square kilometres of the Bunbury region, Bunbury - North-East is a largely car-dependent suburb. It is a place where most people live close to parks and public transport, but very few can walk to a grocery store or doctor. The community is marked by a notably young First Nations population, which helps explain why the typical age for this group is just 19 years old.

There are 183 First Nations people here, with a typical age of 19 that is noticeably younger than the Western Australian and national figures. Unemployment is 16.1%, which is well above the national rate of 12.3%, and very few residents speak a First Nations language compared to the rest of the state.
Most homes are within a 15-minute walk of a park, but only 1.7% have a full range of local amenities nearby. This makes the area mostly car-dependent, with access to groceries and health services far below the state average.
