Belmont Kewdale

Kewdale and Belmont (WA) are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with similar population sizes. Kewdale has a much stronger connection to First Nations languages, spoken by 21.7% of its people compared to 9.7% in Belmont (WA). Kewdale also has more children under 15 (18.9% versus 15.3%) and a higher share of people born overseas (45.2% versus 40.1%). However, Belmont (WA) is far more walkable; for example, 81.7% of its homes are within a 15-minute walk of health services, while only 2.6% of homes in Kewdale have that same access.

Everyday life in both places shares many similarities, from a typical resident age of 36 to nearly identical weekly household incomes. They both have very high rates of people born overseas and those using a language other than English at home. While they track closely on these fronts, some gaps have shifted; Kewdale now has a well higher share of homes owned outright than Belmont (WA), and the gap in the number of people renting has widened in favour of Belmont (WA).
