Page Rankin

Rankin and Page are distinct regions with very different demographics and layouts. Rankin is a very walkable area where the typical resident is 34, while Page is mostly car-dependent and far older, with a typical age of 46. Rankin is much more diverse, with 37.2% of people born overseas and 31.9% using a language other than English at home, compared to just 10.0% and 4.6% in Page. Housing also differs sharply; 42.0% of Page residents own their homes outright, while 36.3% of Rankin households are renting.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of people who identify as having no religion. While they differ in many ways, they share similar rates of high weekly earnings and a nearly identical number of people per bedroom in their homes. Since 2011, the age gap between them has widened, and the difference in overseas birth rates has shifted, with Rankin now having a far higher share of born-overseas residents than Page.
