Bassendean Vincent

Vincent and Bassendean are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with very different living patterns. Vincent is a walker's paradise where 46.2% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher and 33.7% of households earn $3,000 or more per week. In contrast, Bassendean is more car-dependent, with a higher proportion of detached houses (78.5% compared to 48.0% in Vincent) and larger homes, as 80.1% of Bassendean dwellings have three or more bedrooms. Vincent also has a more transient population, with 49.7% of people moving in the last five years.

Both areas share a similar level of access to money and resources. While they are alike in this way, other gaps are widening; the difference in high-income earners and university qualifications has grown since 2011. Vincent remains much closer to the city with a typical five-minute drive, while Bassendean's typical drive is 13 minutes. This reflects a contrast between Vincent's high density of flats and Bassendean's focus on larger, family-sized homes.
