Statistical Area 2 (SA2) comparison ≈ 1.3 km apart · Giralang profile · Crace profile

Giralang Crace

Crace and Giralang are neighbouring suburbs in the Australian Capital Territory. Crace is a highly diverse and mobile area, where 36.9% of people were born overseas and 38.8% use a language other than English at home. This is consistent with its high share of well-qualified adults, with 50.0% holding a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, Giralang has more stable housing, with 37.5% of homes owned outright compared to just 13.3% in Crace. Giralang also has a much higher proportion of separate houses (93.2%) and larger homes, with 93.5% having three or more bedrooms.

Both areas share a similar drive time to the city of about 14 minutes, which is close to the national experience for similar suburbs. They also have nearly identical typical weekly rents of $460. While they share these basics, some gaps are changing; the difference in the share of people with university degrees has narrowed since 2011. However, the gap in language diversity has widened, with Crace becoming even more diverse compared to Giralang.
