Arncliffe Kyeemagh

Arncliffe and Kyeemagh are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Arncliffe is a younger place where the typical resident is 34, and it has a high proportion of university graduates (33.5%) and recent overseas arrivals (20.2%). In contrast, Kyeemagh is older, with a typical age of 44 and many more seniors, as 23.9% of residents are aged 65 or over. This difference extends to their housing; Kyeemagh is dominated by separate houses (84.3%) and homes owned outright (46.9%), while Arncliffe has far more flats and apartments and a much higher rental rate of 40.4%.

Both areas share a similar profile in some key ways, with nearly identical unemployment rates and a similar share of high-earning households. They are also both very connected, with every home within a 10-minute walk of public transport and a park. While they share these common traits, Arncliffe is more walkable (a walker's paradise) compared to Kyeemagh (very walkable), and it is much closer to the city by public transport.
