Grose Vale The Slopes

Grose Vale and The Slopes are neighbouring areas in New South Wales, but they offer very different levels of accessibility. Grose Vale is more connected, with 35.3% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport and 31.9% of people working from home. In contrast, The Slopes has no public transport stops, and no homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries. Other gaps are clear: Grose Vale has a typical First Nations personal income of $725, which is far higher than the $374 seen in The Slopes.

These two areas share a very similar social profile. They have nearly identical typical weekly household incomes, and both have about 3 people per home. They also both have a high share of homes owned outright, which is well above the national figure. This consistency is seen across many measures, including their shares of volunteers and people who served in the Defence Force.
