Kalamunda Victoria Park

Kalamunda and Victoria Park are nearby areas with very different living patterns. Victoria Park is more urban and diverse, with 24.4% of people using a language other than English at home and 36.8% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. It has a high proportion of renters at 44.5% and many more people living alone. In contrast, Kalamunda is dominated by detached houses (93.8%) and larger homes, with 91.1% having three or more bedrooms. Residents there are more likely to own their homes outright, and the area is more family-oriented, with a higher share of children under 15.

Typical weekly incomes are almost identical in both places, sitting around $1,850. This financial similarity exists alongside different lifestyles: Victoria Park is very walkable and close to the city, while Kalamunda is somewhat walkable with a much longer drive time to the city. Over time, the gap in home ownership has narrowed slightly, and the difference in language diversity has also decreased since 2011.
