Coogee Munster

Coogee (WA) and Munster are neighbouring areas with very different layouts. Coogee (WA) is a more established residential hub where the typical family earns $2,635 a week, and residents enjoy a somewhat walkable environment with 42.9% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a city walkshed. In contrast, Munster is largely car-dependent, with a much higher share of renters at 27.1% and a lower typical family income of $2,071. There is also a stark difference among First Nations residents, who are far older in Coogee (WA) with a typical age of 32, compared to just 7 years in Munster.

Both areas share similar levels of home ownership, with 49.2% of homes in each area owned outright. However, the gap in accessibility is wide and persistent, as 97.1% of Coogee (WA) homes are within a 10-minute walk of public transport compared to only 6.6% in Munster. This contrast extends to daily needs, with Coogee (WA) having far more homes within a short walk of parks and groceries.
