Hampstead Gardens Vale Park

Vale Park and Hampstead Gardens are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different housing and income profiles. Vale Park is wealthier, with a typical household income of $2,031 per week and 30.4% of homes earning over $3,000 weekly. It has more large homes, with 85.3% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Hampstead Gardens is far more diverse and reliant on renting, which is the case for 43.3% of households. It also has a much higher proportion of people born overseas (42.8%) and those who use a language other than English at home (44.0%).

Both areas have a similar proportion of children under 15, which sits close to the national figure. While Vale Park is very walkable, Hampstead Gardens is a walker's paradise, with every home within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services. Since 2011, these two neighbours have remained alike in their access to public transport and their typical household sizes, though the gap in rent and home ownership remains wide.
