Hoxton Park West Hoxton

West Hoxton and Hoxton Park are neighbouring areas with distinct differences in wealth and layout. West Hoxton is more affluent, with a typical household income of $2,468 a week compared to $1,960 in Hoxton Park. This is reflected in the share of households earning $3,000 or more weekly, which is far higher in West Hoxton at 36.0% than the 23.3% in Hoxton Park. While West Hoxton has more homes with health services within a 15-minute walk, Hoxton Park is far more walkable overall, with 98.7% of homes in a 15-minute-city walkshed and a much shorter typical walk to the nearest transport stop.

Both areas are very similar in their age profiles and household sizes, with almost identical shares of children under 15 and people aged 65 and over. They also share a high level of cultural diversity; in both places, the share of people born overseas and those using a language other than English at home is far above the national figure. Over time, the gap in household income has remained a prominent feature of these two adjacent neighbourhoods.
