Kelso Raglan

Kelso and Raglan are neighbouring areas with very different levels of convenience and stability. Kelso is much more walkable, with 57.4% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 57.6% in a 15-minute-city walkshed, while Raglan has no such access for either. Kelso also sees much more movement, with 44.0% of residents having moved in the last five years compared to 28.0% in Raglan. This mobility is consistent with a higher share of renters in Kelso (27.7%) and a lower share of homes owned outright than in Raglan (35.5%).

These two places have diverged further as the gap in recent arrivals has widened over time. Despite this, they share very similar typical weekly household incomes, with Kelso at $1,737 and Raglan at $1,785. They are also alike in the size of their homes, with about 2.7 to 2.9 people per household, and both have a similar proportion of volunteers (around 13%).
