Mylor Scott Creek

Mylor and Scott Creek are neighbouring hills areas with very different levels of accessibility. Mylor is far better connected, with 35.6% of homes within a 10 minute walk of public transport, while Scott Creek has no homes within that distance. This is consistent with Mylor having far more public transport stops and departures, and a much shorter walk to the nearest stop. Scott Creek is more stable in terms of housing, with 60.3% of homes owned outright compared to 47.8% in Mylor, and residents there are noticeably older, with a typical age of 50.

Both areas are almost identical in many ways, including their typical weekly family incomes of around $2,500 and a shared preference for detached houses. They also have very similar family structures, with about 15% of the population being children under 15. While both areas sit well above the national figure for people who do not follow a religion, Scott Creek has a slightly higher share at 60.9% compared to 55.4% in Mylor.
