Council (LGA) comparison ≈ 7.4 km apart · Nedlands profile · Vincent profile

Nedlands Vincent

Vincent and Nedlands are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with very different housing and lifestyles. Nedlands is dominated by larger separate houses, which are far more common there than in Vincent. This is reflected in the homes: 83.6% of Nedlands homes have three or more bedrooms, compared to 53.3% in Vincent. Nedlands also has a much higher share of homes owned outright (45.0% versus 23.6%) and more high-income households earning $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, Vincent is more transient and urban, with far more people renting (42.3%) and a much higher number of people living alone (33.9%).

Since 2011, the gaps between these two areas have generally widened. The difference in home ownership and the number of large houses have both grown, as has the gap in the number of people living alone. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas remain very similar in some ways. They share nearly identical levels of overseas-born residents, similar typical weekly incomes, and the same top ranking for overall advantage. Both areas also have populations that have grown by about 12% since 2021.
