Mordialloc Parkdale

Parkdale and Mordialloc are neighbouring areas in Victoria with similar profiles but distinct housing and amenity patterns. Parkdale has a higher share of separate houses (54.6% compared to 39.8% in Mordialloc) and more homes with three or more bedrooms. It also has a higher proportion of people who own their homes outright (37.8% versus 27.7% in Mordialloc) and a larger number of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services. Mordialloc, however, has a higher share of people born overseas (28.3% versus 21.7% in Parkdale) and a higher number of walkable amenities per 1,000 residents.

These two areas share many core characteristics, including nearly identical typical weekly household incomes of around $2,000 to $2,100 and very similar proportions of children under 15. They are also alike in their levels of school advantage and the share of residents who have completed Year 12. While Mordialloc has seen a higher share of people move in over the last five years, both areas remain well above the national figure for people using a language other than English at home.
