Wreck Bay

4 km²

A steady population trend defines Wreck Bay, a small community in the Other Territories. It is a place where most people live close to nature, with every home within a short walk of a park. However, it is highly car-dependent for basic needs, as there are no shops, schools, or health services nearby. The area is largely residential and sparsely populated across its 4.3 square kilometre extent.
