Cockburn Peppermint Grove

Cockburn and Peppermint Grove are nearby Western Australian areas with very different profiles. Peppermint Grove is a wealthy enclave where typical weekly household income is $4,565 and 55.8% of homes earn $3,000 or more per week. It is a walker's paradise, with nearly every home within a 15-minute walk of health services and groceries. Cockburn is much larger and more diverse, with 21.6% of people using a language other than English at home. While Cockburn is also high-earning compared to most areas, its typical weekly household income is $1,995, and it is only somewhat walkable.

The gap in typical weekly household income has widened since 2011, growing from $1,131 to $2,570. Despite this, the two areas are similar in some ways; they have almost identical shares of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and similar unemployment rates. They also share the same top ranking for access to money and resources. While Peppermint Grove has a higher share of university degrees and older residents, the gap in Year 12 completion has narrowed since 2011.
