Clontarf Cremorne

Cremorne and Clontarf are neighbouring areas with very different housing and lifestyles. Cremorne is a high-density hub where 71.4% of homes are flats or apartments and 44.9% of households rent. It is a walker's paradise with a walkability score of 9.2, which helps explain why 13.4% of homes have no car. In contrast, Clontarf is dominated by large family homes, with 94.3% being separate houses and 92.7% having three or more bedrooms. It is also much wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $4,609 compared to $2,481 in Cremorne.

Everyday life in both places shares several qualities, as residents in both areas have 100% access to parks and public transport within a 10-minute walk. They also have similar levels of school advantage and an almost identical share of people who have served in the Defence Force. While Clontarf has a noticeably older population—with a typical age of 47 compared to 40 in Cremorne—the gap in the number of retirees is small. Over time, the two areas have remained distinct, with Cremorne continuing to see more people moving in and a far higher share of people living alone.
