East Ryde Ryde

Ryde and East Ryde are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Ryde is a high-density hub where 48.9% of people were born overseas and 50.2% use a language other than English at home. It has a high proportion of renters (45.1%) and many more people living alone. In contrast, East Ryde is dominated by large, detached houses, with 92.8% of homes being separate houses and 46.9% owned outright. This area is also wealthier; the typical weekly household income in East Ryde is $3,240, which is far higher than the $2,024 typical in Ryde.

Both areas share a similar distance to the city and have the same rate of access to local parks. They also have very similar levels of unemployment and a similar share of residents who do not follow a religion. While Ryde is more connected by public transport and more walkable, both areas are relatively close to the national figure for the share of the population identifying as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander.
