Albury Glenroy

Albury and Glenroy (Albury - NSW) are neighbouring areas with very different housing and lifestyles. Albury is very walkable, with a high share of renters (39.2%) and a more educated workforce where 32.6% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, Glenroy (Albury - NSW) is more car-dependent and residential, with separate houses making up 88% of homes and 82.9% of dwellings having three or more bedrooms. These differences extend to the local environment; Albury has far more public transport and 83.9% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, compared to just 24.5% in Glenroy (Albury - NSW).

Everyday life in both places shares many common traits, as residents in both areas have the same typical age of 45 and very similar weekly household incomes. They also have almost identical proportions of First Nations people and a similar share of the population aged 65 and over. While Albury currently has a much higher share of people living alone and higher typical earnings, these two neighbours continue to track closely across dozens of other social and health measures.
