Gelston Park Gregadoo

Gregadoo and Gelston Park are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with distinct characters. Gregadoo is a place of detached houses, which make up 100% of the homes, and has a stronger link to the land with more people working in agriculture. Gelston Park is more expensive, with a typical weekly rent of $460 compared to $278 in Gregadoo. It also has a higher proportion of people with no religion (38.8% versus 19.3%) and a typical resident's age that is noticeably older at 47 years, compared to 41 years in Gregadoo.

Both areas share very similar typical weekly household incomes, sitting around $2,300 to $2,400. This commonality exists alongside other shared traits, such as a total lack of public transport and no homes within a 15-minute walk of amenities. While Gregadoo has more people working from home and more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents, Gelston Park has more adults with a bachelor degree or higher. These two areas have both maintained high rates of home ownership, well above the national figure.
