South Perth Vincent

South Perth and Vincent are neighbouring areas in the city of Perth with distinct housing and demographic profiles. South Perth has a noticeably older population, with a typical age of 39 and 19.6% of residents aged 65 and over. It also has far more larger homes, as 67.1% have three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Vincent is younger, with a typical age of 36, and has a much higher share of people with no religion at 51.7%. First Nations residents in Vincent are also far older, with a typical age of 30 compared to 22 in South Perth, and they have higher typical personal incomes and Year 12 completion rates.

Many gaps between these neighbours have widened since 2011, such as the difference in the share of people aged 65 and over and those who own their homes outright. Despite this, the two areas share several common traits. They have almost identical shares of children under 15 and a similar typical number of people per home. Both are high-income areas where a large proportion of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, and both have a high number of residents who use a language other than English at home.
