Banksmeadow Eastlakes

Eastlakes and Banksmeadow are neighbouring areas with very different social and economic profiles. Banksmeadow is a wealthier area where the typical weekly household income is $2,225, compared to $1,300 in Eastlakes. It has a much younger population, with 27.7% of people in de facto relationships and 40.7% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, Eastlakes has a far higher share of seniors at 19.5% and a more diverse population, where 55.2% of people use a language other than English at home. Eastlakes is also more residential in feel, with far more separate houses and a higher share of people who own their homes outright.

Both areas have tracked differently since 2011, most notably in how people move into the region. Banksmeadow has seen a massive surge in new arrivals, with 77.3% of people moving in during the last five years, while the figure for Eastlakes is much lower at 34.2%. Despite this shift, the two areas remain similar in a few ways: they have nearly identical rates of volunteering and similar proportions of First Nations residents. They also both sit well above the national figure for the share of people who use a language other than English at home.
