Grange Newmarket

Newmarket and Grange are neighbouring areas with distinct characters. Grange is a wealthier, family-oriented suburb where the typical weekly household income is $3,243 and 80.8% of homes have three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Newmarket has a younger, more transient population; it is far more likely to be rented (45.1%) and has a much higher share of recent overseas arrivals at 24.6%. This is reflected in the housing, with Newmarket having far more flats or apartments than Grange.

Both areas are effectively equal in their number of businesses and the high level of education and job skills found among residents. While they share these traits, the gaps in income and housing have widened since 2011. This shift is consistent with the differing demographics, as Grange has a much higher proportion of children under 15 and more people caring for children unpaid than Newmarket.
