Suburb profile

Boggabri is a major regional centre in New South Wales, in Narrabri Council, with mainly mixed commercial and residential development.

Everyday destinations are relatively walkable, well above typical levels for major regional centres. Dining and cafés are a relative strength. Open-space access is better than in most comparable places. Housing is unusually affordable against comparable places. Median house prices have risen 32% year on year. The clearer weaknesses are lower socio-economic advantage and fewer university qualifications, with university qualifications 51% below the peer median.

Boggabri is a better fit for people who value more affordable housing and walkability more than socio-economic advantage.

Federal electorate from AEC federal division boundaries (2025 redistribution). Division-level results are official AEC figures from the latest general election, with by-election updates where applicable. The estimated suburb profile blends up to eight nearest ordinary polling booths in the same electorate using inverse-distance weighting from the suburb centroid — an approximation, not official AEC data. Nearest polling places are shown for reference.

Socio-economic

IRSAD decile (2021)
1/10
IRSD decile (2021)
2/10

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?

IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.

IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.

A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
