It has a highly qualified workforce, with 52.4% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, Burbank is much older; the typical resident is 48, and seniors aged 65 and over make up 24% of the population. Burbank also has a more established feel, with 56.2% of homes owned outright compared to just 23.2% in Rochedale.
