Berrilee Hornsby Heights

Hornsby Heights and Berrilee are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with very different layouts and populations. Hornsby Heights is a larger community where residents are more likely to have a bachelor degree (38.4% compared to 22.1%) and earn $3,000 or more per week (42.5% compared to 31.3%). It is much more walkable, with 55.9% of homes having a 15-minute-city walkshed, whereas Berrilee is car-dependent with no homes meeting that standard. Residents in Hornsby Heights also have much better access to essentials, with 59.1% within a short walk of a school, while Berrilee has none.

Daily life in both places is similar in some ways, as they share almost identical rates of unemployment and the same number of public transport routes.
