Augusta Deepdene

Augusta and Deepdene (WA) are neighbouring areas in Western Australia, though they differ significantly in size and layout. Augusta is a larger residential centre where residents are far older, with a typical age of 62 and 44.2% aged 65 and over. It is far more walkable, with 56.2% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 50.6% near health services. In contrast, Deepdene (WA) is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with all residents living in separate houses. Deepdene (WA) has a much higher share of one-parent families (28.6%) and a higher proportion of adults working or looking for work (67.9%) compared to Augusta.

Both areas have a similar share of people born overseas, at around 21%. They also share a similar level of school advantage and the same number of schools within 3 km. While Augusta's population is more likely to be older and face long-term health conditions, Deepdene (WA) has a higher typical income for First Nations residents. Since 2011, the two areas have remained similar in their low levels of English language use, even as they differ in how people get to work and the types of professional qualifications they hold.
