East Lismore Tregeagle

East Lismore and Tregeagle are neighbouring areas with very different characters. East Lismore is more urban and transient, where 38.2% of homes are rented and 40.2% of people moved in during the last five years. In contrast, Tregeagle is a more established residential area where 53.8% of homes are owned outright and the typical resident is far older at 53, compared to 39 in East Lismore. Tregeagle also has a higher share of wealthy households, with 24.7% earning $3,000 or more a week, while only 10.0% of households in East Lismore earn that much.

These differences in housing and lifestyle are reflected in how people get around, as East Lismore is somewhat walkable while Tregeagle is car-dependent.

Despite these distinct patterns, the two areas share a similar proportion of children under 15 and a nearly identical share of people who speak little or no English.
