Perth Vincent

Vincent and Perth are neighbouring areas with very different housing and cultural profiles. Perth is far more diverse, with 54.1% of people born overseas and 37.8% using another language at home, compared to 32.9% and 19.8% in Vincent. Housing differs sharply too; while 48.0% of Vincent's homes are separate houses, just 3.0% are in Perth, where flats and apartments dominate. Vincent is more likely to have families, with a higher share of people caring for children unpaid (23.8% versus 12.6%) and a larger proportion of homes with three or more bedrooms.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of people in the workforce, with about 64% employed full-time. They are also similar in that nearly half of all adults in both places hold a bachelor degree or higher. While the two areas are both high-advantage, the gap in rental rates has widened, with renting now far more common in Perth. Similarly, the difference in overseas births and the use of other languages at home has grown since 2011.
