North Richmond is a larger, somewhat walkable hub where 27.2% of people rent and 50% of residents have moved there in the last five years.

Wealth also differs, with 37.1% of households in The Slopes earning $3,000 or more a week, compared to 22% in North Richmond.

These two places share a very similar typical weekly family income, with North Richmond at $2,094 and The Slopes at $2,225.
