Stirling Vincent

Stirling and Vincent are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with very different layouts. Stirling is more suburban, with 74.6% of homes having three or more bedrooms and a higher share of people born overseas (37.7%). In contrast, Vincent is more urban and densely populated, described as a walker's paradise with a walkability score of 8.7. It is also a more affluent and highly educated area, where the typical weekly personal income is $1,193 compared to $912 in Stirling, and 46.2% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher.

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in several ways. The gap in typical incomes and the share of people with no religion have both widened. However, they remain similar in some fundamental ways, such as having an overall advantage score near the national average. They also share very similar rates of unemployment and the same proportions of people who have served in the Defence Force.
