Hackney Norwood
Norwood (SA) and Hackney are neighbouring areas with very different economic profiles. Norwood (SA) is a wealthier hub where the typical weekly personal income is $1,002, compared to $625 in Hackney. It also has a more established residential feel, with far more homes having three or more bedrooms (49.0% versus 34.5%) and a higher share of adults with bachelor degrees. Hackney is more densely focused on smaller living, with a far higher share of people living alone (50.8% versus 38.2%) and a much higher number of schools per 1,000 children.
Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, with the same share of people moving in the last five years. They are also alike in their rental markets, with about 44% of homes rented in both. However, a gap in safety has widened, as the recorded offence rate in Hackney has risen by 131.1%, far higher than the 22.4% increase in Norwood (SA). This is consistent with a much higher overall crime rate in Hackney, where theft is the most common offence.
