Keiraville Mount Pleasant

Keiraville and Mount Pleasant (NSW) are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Keiraville is a young, transit-linked hub where the typical resident is just 26 and 30.5% of people have arrived from overseas recently. In contrast, Mount Pleasant (NSW) is more established and affluent, with a typical age of 40 and a typical weekly household income that is far higher at $2,862, compared to $1,739 in Keiraville. While Mount Pleasant (NSW) has far more large family homes and children, Keiraville has far more renters and people living alone.

Both areas have tracked in similar directions since 2011, yet they remain distinct. They share a similar proportion of First Nations people and people with no religion, and both sit near the national figure for the time it takes to drive to the city. However, the gap in accessibility remains wide; Keiraville is very walkable and highly connected to public transport, whereas Mount Pleasant (NSW) is far more car-dependent.
