Croydon Warranwood

Croydon (Vic.) and Warranwood are neighbouring areas with very different housing and income profiles. Warranwood is significantly wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $2,852 compared to $1,615 in Croydon (Vic.), and 44.4% of households earning $3,000 or more per week. This wealth is reflected in the homes; Warranwood has a much higher share of detached houses (98.2%) and large homes, with 94.6% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Croydon (Vic.) is more rental-heavy (26.4%) and has many more people living alone (30.0% compared to 10.8% in Warranwood).

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of people who have completed Year 12.
