Subiaco and Claremont are neighbouring areas in Perth's western suburbs. Subiaco is more walkable and urban, with 100% of homes within a 15-minute walk of both groceries and health services. It has a higher share of renters at 40.2% and more small homes. Claremont has a more suburban feel, with a far higher share of homes owned outright (41.1%) and more large houses, as 65.1% of homes have three or more bedrooms.
