_Note:_ This table presents group averages and differences in means for households matched across the two waves of the panel data. Columns (1)-(4) present average and s.d. for each variable described for ULGSP LGAs and comparator, for each of the survey waves. Columns (5)-(6) present differences in means for the specific groups and the p-value of a t-test for equality of means (clustering at LGA-level) 47
