Malaga vs Landsdale

Statistical Area 2 (SA2) comparison ≈ 6.2 km apart · Malaga profile · Landsdale profile

Malaga Landsdale

Landsdale and Malaga are neighbouring areas in Western Australia with very different characters. Landsdale is a populated residential hub where families are common, with 25.1% of people under 15 and a typical resident aged 33. It is a diverse area where 39.9% of people were born overseas and 37% use a language other than English at home. In contrast, Malaga is sparsely populated and far more industrial. Residents there are far older, with a typical age of 43, and typical weekly family incomes are far higher at $7,000 compared to $2,511 in Landsdale.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of people who are working or looking for work. They also share similar weather, including nearly identical average minimum temperatures. While Landsdale is a family-oriented place with many people caring for children unpaid and a higher share of Year 12 graduates, Malaga has seen more movement recently, with 61.9% of people moving in the last five years. This shift is consistent with Malaga's higher share of people providing unpaid care and more residents with long-term health conditions.
