Clergate is more family-oriented and prosperous, with 20.4% of people being children under 15 and 20% of households earning $3,000 or more a week.

Homes in Clergate are typically larger, with 82.9% having three or more bedrooms, while only 40% of homes in Kerrs Creek have that many rooms.

Both areas are entirely car-dependent, as no homes are within a 15-minute walk of public transport or groceries.
