Broadmeadows Dallas

Broadmeadows (Vic.) and Dallas are neighbouring areas with very different housing and transport profiles. Dallas has a much higher share of separate houses (83.6% compared to 67.9% in Broadmeadows (Vic.)) and more homes with three or more bedrooms (86.0% versus 68.9%). Broadmeadows (Vic.) is far more connected by public transport, with 6.07 stops per 1,000 people and 27 different routes, while Dallas has 2.96 stops and only 2 routes. Renting is also far more common in Broadmeadows (Vic.), where 48.9% of households rent, compared to 32.2% in Dallas.

These two places are almost identical in many other ways, sharing the same typical resident age of 32 and very similar weekly household incomes. This common ground extends to their populations, as both areas have a very high proportion of people born overseas and those who use a language other than English at home. While they are similar in these respects, Dallas has seen a far higher rate of Year 12 completion among First Nations residents (44.4% versus 30.3% in Broadmeadows (Vic.)) than the national figure.
