Bradfield Grayndler

Bradfield and Grayndler are two nearby areas with very different housing and social profiles. Bradfield is more likely to have separate houses (59.0% compared to 27.5% in Grayndler) and more people born overseas (45.8% versus 32.5%). Grayndler is much more likely to be rented (44.1% compared to 26.2% in Bradfield), with a far higher share of people living alone (30.4% versus 19.1%) or in de facto relationships (18.2% versus 5.6%).

These two areas share very similar typical weekly family incomes, both around $3,100 to $3,200. They also both have high numbers of university-qualified adults and similar unemployment rates. While they are alike in these ways, the gap in home ownership has flipped since 2011, with Bradfield now seeing far more homes owned outright. At the same time, the difference in the share of people born overseas has narrowed over the last decade.
