Claremont Joondalup

Joondalup and Claremont are two distinct parts of Greater Perth. Joondalup is a much larger area where separate houses are common, with 88.6% of homes being detached and 93.4% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Claremont is more compact, with a far higher share of renters (29.0%) and more people living alone (31.9%). Education levels differ sharply; 51.7% of adults in Claremont hold a bachelor degree or higher, which is far higher than the 27.0% in Joondalup. Claremont also has a much higher typical weekly personal income of $1,142, compared to $906 in Joondalup.

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in several ways. The gap in typical incomes and the share of university graduates has widened, and Claremont has seen a bigger increase in recent overseas arrivals. However, they remain very similar in other areas, such as their unemployment rates (around 4.4% to 4.5%) and the share of people with long-term health conditions. Both areas also score at the very top of the national scale for overall advantage.
