Gilead Menangle Park

Gilead and Menangle Park are neighbouring areas with very different populations. Gilead is a senior-heavy area where the typical resident is 74 and 87.6% of people are aged 65 or over. This is reflected in the housing, where 97.7% of homes are townhouses or semi-detached and many residents live alone. In contrast, Menangle Park is much younger, with a typical age of 39. It is dominated by separate houses (94.2%) and families, with 51.9% of households being couples with children.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining entirely car-dependent with walkability scores of 1.1.
