Holgate Lisarow

Lisarow and Holgate are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Holgate has a much wealthier population, with a typical weekly household income of $2,951 compared to $2,087 in Lisarow. Residents in Holgate are also more likely to have a university degree (34.8% compared to 22.2% in Lisarow) and live in detached houses, which make up 99.3% of homes there. In contrast, Lisarow is far more walkable, with a score of 4.4 (somewhat walkable) while Holgate is 1.4 (car-dependent).
