Belmont Mundaring

Mundaring and Belmont are nearby areas in Greater Perth with very different characters. Mundaring is an older community where the typical resident is 44, and it is dominated by separate houses, with 95.9% of homes being detached. In contrast, Belmont is much younger, with a typical age of 36, and has a far more diverse population; 40.9% of residents were born overseas and 31% use a language other than English at home. Housing also differs sharply, as 44% of Belmont residents rent, compared to just 11% in Mundaring.

Both areas share a similar typical weekly rent of $350 and have nearly the same share of children under 15. However, the gaps between them are often widening. Since 2011, the difference in typical age has grown, and the gap in overseas birth and home ownership has also increased. While Mundaring remains mostly car-dependent, Belmont is very walkable, with far more people living within a short stroll of shops and schools.
