Wishart is more likely to have larger families, with a higher share of children under 15 (21.1% versus 14.1%) and more people caring for children unpaid. Homes in Wishart also tend to be larger, with 90.6% having three or more bedrooms compared to 78.5% in Robertson.

Everyday life in both areas is similar in some ways, with almost the same share of First Nations people (1.2%) and nearly identical typical household sizes.
