Granville Guildford

Guildford and Granville are two large, neighbouring areas in Western Sydney with distinct housing and education profiles. Granville has a far higher proportion of people born overseas (61.0% compared to 45.5% in Guildford) and a more qualified workforce, with 30.2% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 17.5% in Guildford. Housing differs significantly; Guildford has far more separate houses (54.8% versus 34.8% in Granville) and a higher share of homes with three or more bedrooms.

These two areas share a very similar typical resident age of 31 and have identical proportions of people who speak little or no English. This common ground exists alongside other differences, such as Granville's higher typical weekly income of $677 compared to $513 in Guildford. While both are far above the national figure for people using another language at home, this is even more common in Granville, where 69.3% of residents do so.
