Revesby Sandy Point

Revesby and Sandy Point (NSW) are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Revesby is a larger, very walkable hub where 48.7% of people use a language other than English at home and 39.7% were born overseas. In contrast, Sandy Point (NSW) is a smaller, mostly car-dependent area where 100% of homes are separate houses. Wealth is also quite different; the typical weekly household income in Sandy Point (NSW) is $2,986, which is far higher than the $1,844 typical for Revesby.

While these two areas have drifted apart in terms of income and housing, they remain similar in other ways. Both have about the same share of children under 15 and the same typical number of people per home. However, the gap in housing tenure is wide and unlikely to close, with renting far higher in Revesby (35.9%) compared to Sandy Point (NSW) (10.8%).
