Rhodes Denistone

Rhodes and Denistone are neighbouring areas with very different living patterns. Rhodes is a young, high-density hub where the typical resident is 32 and 95.1% of homes are flats or apartments. It has a large international population, with 72.2% born overseas and 74.1% using a language other than English at home. In contrast, Denistone is an older area where the typical resident is 42 and most people live in separate houses, with 80.7% of homes being detached. Denistone has a much higher share of homeowners, with 43.7% owning their place outright, compared to just 10.5% in Rhodes.

Both areas are almost identical when it comes to their overall advantage scores and their 16-minute drive time to the city. While they share a similar level of general prosperity, their daily lives differ. Rhodes is much more transient and walkable, with 70% of people moving in the last five years and every home within a 15-minute walk of groceries. Denistone is more stable, with far fewer recent moves and a higher proportion of families with children.
