Holroyd Mays Hill

Mays Hill and Holroyd are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct profiles. Mays Hill is a highly mobile hub where 71.5% of people moved in the last five years, and 35.4% are recent overseas arrivals. It has a very high proportion of university-qualified adults (50.7%) and a high rental rate of 64.7%. In contrast, Holroyd has more family-sized homes, with 51.7% having three or more bedrooms compared to 29.8% in Mays Hill. Holroyd also has a significantly older First Nations population and higher typical incomes for First Nations households.

Both areas are very similar in the size of their households, typically housing between 2.7 and 2.8 people per home. They are also alike in having high shares of people born overseas and those who use a language other than English at home, both far above the national figure. While both are very walkable, Mays Hill is even more so, described as a walker's paradise. This higher walkability is consistent with a higher share of homes with no motor vehicle (12.8%) compared to Holroyd (5.1%).
