Crestwood Greenleigh

Crestwood and Greenleigh are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Crestwood is a diverse and younger community where the typical resident is 35 and 28.5% were born overseas. It is a high-density hub where 41.8% of homes are rented, many people live alone, and the area is very walkable. In contrast, Greenleigh is much older, with a typical age of 50, and is far more affluent; the typical household income is $3,263 per week, compared to $1,719 in Crestwood. Greenleigh is primarily made up of large, detached houses, with 90% having three or more bedrooms and 56.6% owned outright.

Both areas have tracked differently since 2011, with Crestwood becoming much more transient as 46.3% of residents moved in the last five years. This recent growth is consistent with the high number of overseas arrivals and a population that is now far more likely to use a language other than English at home. While they differ in almost every economic and demographic measure, they share a similar school environment, with both areas having the same number of schools within 3km and identical average school advantage scores.
