Chapman Waramanga

Chapman and Waramanga are neighbouring areas in the Australian Capital Territory with similar populations. Chapman is a wealthier and older area, where the typical resident is 47 and typical weekly household income is $3,111. It has a much higher share of detached houses (89.9%) and homes owned outright (48.7%) compared to Waramanga. In contrast, Waramanga is younger, with a typical age of 38, and is more walkable, with 100% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services. Waramanga also has a higher proportion of renters (27.5%) and recent overseas arrivals (13.8%).

Everyday life in both places shares many similarities, including similar unemployment rates and an almost identical share of people born overseas. They also have nearly the same number of public transport stops and similar access to transit. However, the age gap between the two is growing, with residents in Chapman becoming far older than those in Waramanga since 2011.
