Cammeray Mosman

Mosman and Cammeray are neighbouring areas with a high proportion of university-qualified residents and high weekly incomes. Mosman has a noticeably older population, with the typical resident aged 45 and 21.9% of people aged 65 or over, compared to a typical age of 40 and 15.6% of seniors in Cammeray. Mosman is also more geared toward larger homes, with a higher share of separate houses (34.9% compared to 24.9%) and homes with three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Cammeray has many more walkable amenities per 1,000 residents (23.1 compared to 14.3), though Mosman has far more public transport stops and departures.

These two areas have tracked closely since 2011, remaining very similar in their typical weekly household incomes and the share of people who speak a language other than English at home. They both sit well above the national figure for households earning $3,000 or more a week. While they share this wealth, the way people live differs; Mosman has a higher share of homes owned outright, while Cammeray has a higher share of renters.
