Roxburgh Park Yuroke

Roxburgh Park and Yuroke are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Roxburgh Park is a large, young community where the typical resident is 31 and children under 15 make up 22.9% of the population. It is highly diverse, with 51.1% of people born overseas and 69.8% using a language other than English at home. In contrast, Yuroke is sparsely populated and far older; the typical resident is 56, and a third of the population is aged 65 or over. Yuroke also has a much higher rate of outright home ownership at 60.5%, compared to 20.3% in Roxburgh Park.

These two areas are almost identical in their average school advantage scores. Beyond that, they differ in almost every way, from their housing to their transport. Roxburgh Park is more walkable with more public transport, while Yuroke is entirely made up of separate houses and is more car-dependent. The gap in the number of people who have moved recently is far higher in Roxburgh Park, which is consistent with its higher share of recent overseas arrivals.
