Kellyville Ridge The Ponds

The Ponds and Kellyville Ridge are neighbouring suburbs with similar profiles, though they differ in how people access their needs. The Ponds is more diverse and transient, with 55.5% of residents using a language other than English at home and 50.0% having moved in the last five years. It also has more public transport stops and a higher share of high earners, with 54.3% of households earning $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, Kellyville Ridge is far more walkable, with 99.4% of homes within a 15-minute walk of both groceries and health services, compared to just 39.2% and 50.1% in The Ponds.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of people who speak little or no English. They also share a typical resident age of 35 and very similar weekly household incomes, around $3,100 to $3,300. While both are family-focused areas with many children, the gap in walkability remains a striking difference between these two neighbours.
