# Health & Disability — Wiley Park

Long-term health conditions and the need for help with everyday activities.

Area: Wiley Park (Statistical Area 2 (SA2))

Nearly three quarters of people in Wiley Park report having no long-term health conditions. This makes the area stand out for its good health, as it has far fewer long-term and mental health conditions than the state and national figures.

Only 17.5% of residents have a long-term health condition, which is far below the Australian figure of 27.7%. Mental health conditions are also well below the national average at just 3.9%.

About 5.8% of people need help with daily activities, a figure that is about the same as both the state and national averages and has barely changed since 2016.
