East Ryde Lane Cove North

Lane Cove North and East Ryde are neighbouring areas with very different housing and lifestyles. Lane Cove North is a high-density hub where 70.8% of homes are flats or apartments and 39.9% of households rent. It is also more culturally diverse, with 43.2% of people born overseas and 35.3% using another language at home. In contrast, East Ryde is dominated by detached houses, which make up 92.8% of homes. It has a stronger trend of home ownership, with 46.9% of homes owned outright, and a higher share of wealthy households, as 50.2% earn $3,000 or more a week.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011 as high-income suburbs where a large share of adults hold a university degree.
