Collingwood Richmond - North

Richmond - North and Collingwood are neighbouring inner-city areas with similar profiles, though they differ in scale and diversity. Richmond - North is more culturally diverse, with a well higher share of people using another language at home (32.1%) and those who speak little or no English (9.5%). It also has a notably higher typical income for First Nations people, at $1,224 compared to $637 in Collingwood. In contrast, Collingwood has seen far higher population growth since 2021 (21.7% versus 8.7%) and offers more walkable amenities per 1,000 residents.

Both areas are very similar in their basic makeup, with nearly identical proportions of children, one-parent families, and people living alone. They also share a high rate of renting and very few detached houses compared to the national figure. While both are highly connected, Collingwood has a far larger number of public transport routes and a higher frequency of departures. Since 2011, the gap in population growth has widened, with Collingwood expanding much faster than Richmond - North.
