Yass Surrounds Holt

Yass Surrounds and Holt are nearby but very different in layout and makeup. Yass Surrounds is dominated by large separate houses (98.3%) and a high share of wealthy households earning over $3,000 a week (40.3%). In contrast, Holt is much more diverse, with 25.3% of people born overseas and 19.6% using another language at home—figures far higher than in Yass Surrounds. While Yass Surrounds has more homes owned outright, Holt is much more walkable and connected, with 99.9% of homes within a 10 minute walk of public transport.

Since 2011, the gaps between these two areas have often widened. More people have moved into Holt in the last five years, and the difference in overseas births and language use has grown. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas remain similar in some ways. They share almost identical typical weekly rents of around $400, a similar share of residents aged 65 and over, and a similar proportion of people with no religion.
