Griffith Ryan

Griffith and Ryan are two different kinds of residential hubs. Griffith is a highly walkable area where 97.5% of homes are within 15 minutes of groceries and 94.5% are near health services. It has a high share of renters at 48.0% and is more likely to have flats or apartments. In contrast, Ryan is more car-dependent and residential, with 69.3% of homes being separate houses and 75.1% having three or more bedrooms. Ryan also has a higher proportion of homeowners, with 30.5% owning their home outright compared to 19.8% in Griffith.

Both areas share very similar typical household incomes, with Griffith at $2,185 and Ryan at $2,301 per week. They are also alike in their levels of school enrolments and the share of people born overseas. While they share these basics, some gaps are growing; for instance, the difference in the number of children under 15 and the number of people who have moved recently has widened since 2011.
