Kellyville Ridge Parklea

Kellyville Ridge and Parklea are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different social profiles. Kellyville Ridge is a high-earning hub where 22% of people earn $2,000 or more a week and 40.6% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher. It is also a major centre for families, with children under 15 making up 26.1% of the population and 37.4% of people providing unpaid childcare. In contrast, Parklea has a much larger First Nations community, accounting for 8.3% of its residents, and has a lower proportion of adults working or looking for work at 40.9%.

These two areas share a nearly identical typical resident age of 35 and very similar housing costs, with typical monthly home-loan payments of $2,600 in both. They also both have large homes, with about 90% of dwellings containing three or more bedrooms. While they are similar in these ways, the gap in local accessibility is wide; Kellyville Ridge is far more walkable, with 100% of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services compared to 41.8% in Parklea.
