Mitchell Windradyne

Windradyne and Mitchell (NSW) are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Windradyne is more likely to have families, with 20.6% of people under 15 and a high share of large, detached houses. It also has higher typical incomes, with households usually earning $1,567 a week. In contrast, Mitchell (NSW) has a much higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 23.9% and is largely shaped by renters, who make up 78.7% of households. Many people in Mitchell (NSW) live alone, and the typical weekly household income is much lower at $779.

Both areas are very walkable and have almost identical scores in this regard. They also share similar rates of recent overseas arrivals and very low use of public transport for commuting. While they share these traits, the gaps between them remain stark, particularly in housing and education, as Windradyne has a far higher share of adults who completed Year 12.
