Mount Waverley Notting Hill

Mount Waverley and Notting Hill are neighbouring areas with very different housing and age profiles. Mount Waverley is a more established area where residents are far older, with a typical age of 40 compared to 30 in Notting Hill. This is reflected in the homes; Mount Waverley has far more separate houses and larger properties, with 86.8% of homes having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Notting Hill has a much higher share of renters at 50.2% and a far higher proportion of people living alone (29.9%). Mount Waverley also sees far more high-earning households, with 30.8% earning $3,000 or more a week, compared to 16.5% in Notting Hill.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011 in their shared identity as diverse, highly educated hubs. They are effectively alike in their distance to the city and the fact that everyone lives within a 15-minute walk of a park. This shared environment exists alongside a growing gap in mobility, as Notting Hill now has far more public transport departures and a much higher share of recent overseas arrivals (35.5%) than Mount Waverley (15.8%).
