Cambridge Vincent
Vincent and Cambridge are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with very different housing and lifestyles. Cambridge has a much stronger lean towards family life, where separate houses are far more common (73.4% compared to 48.0% in Vincent) and homes with three or more bedrooms are far higher (76.9% versus 53.3%). This is consistent with Cambridge having a larger share of children under 15 and a typically older population. In contrast, Vincent is more urban and transient, with far more people renting (42.3% versus 21.2%) and a much higher share of people living alone (33.9% versus 23.3%).
Both areas sit near the national figure for people needing help with daily activities, at around 4%. They also share similar typical weekly incomes and unemployment rates. While they are close in these respects, the gap in home ownership has widened since 2011, with homes owned outright becoming far more common in Cambridge than in Vincent. At the same time, the gap in language diversity has narrowed, as the two areas have become more alike in the share of people using another language at home.
