Deakin O'Malley

Deakin and O'Malley are neighbouring areas in the Australian Capital Territory. Deakin is very walkable and more diverse in its housing, with 67.9% separate houses and a typical weekly rent of $560. O'Malley is more focused on large, detached homes, with 96.5% separate houses and typical weekly rents that are far higher at $975. O'Malley has a much higher proportion of people born overseas (43.6%) and those using another language at home (43.2%), while Deakin has a far higher share of people who live alone (28.5%) and those with no religion (42.3%).

Since 2011, the two areas have tracked in different directions regarding their populations and housing.
