Kennington Mandurang

Kennington and Mandurang are neighbouring areas in Victoria with very different profiles. Mandurang is a wealthier area where the typical household income is $2,279 per week, far higher than the $1,371 seen in Kennington. Residents in Mandurang are also more likely to hold a bachelor degree (36.6% compared to 26.5% in Kennington) and live in larger separate houses, with 93.9% of homes having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Kennington is much more urban and transient, with 37.7% of households renting and a far higher share of recent overseas arrivals at 20.7%.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the proportion of adults with a bachelor degree or higher. They also share similar typical weekly rents and travel times to the city. However, their daily experiences differ wildly; Kennington is highly walkable with frequent public transport and most homes within a short walk of shops, while Mandurang is more car-dependent with no public transport stops and far fewer local amenities.
