Glen Waverley Notting Hill

Glen Waverley and Notting Hill are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Glen Waverley is an older, more established suburb where the typical resident is 40 and 19.8% are seniors. It has many large, separate houses—86% of homes have three or more bedrooms—and 27.8% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, Notting Hill is much younger, with a typical age of 30 and a high share of renters at 50.2%. It is dominated by smaller homes, as 45.5% of dwellings are flats or apartments.

Daily life in both places is shaped by a similar mix of people, with about 58% born overseas and nearly identical typical weekly incomes of around $710. They also share the same access to parks and schools within a 15-minute walk. However, the gap in housing is stark; homes are far more likely to be owned outright in Glen Waverley, while Notting Hill has a much higher proportion of people living alone and recent arrivals from overseas.
