Duncraig Marmion

Duncraig and Marmion are neighbouring suburbs in Perth's north, but they differ in their accessibility and diversity. Duncraig is far more walkable, with 54.6% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries compared to just 6.7% in Marmion. Duncraig also has a much larger overseas-born population at 33.0% and more people using another language at home. In contrast, Marmion has a higher proportion of homeowners who own their houses outright (48.3% versus 41.2% in Duncraig) and a slightly higher share of people earning $2,000 or more a week.

These two areas have tracked similarly since 2011, maintaining very similar typical household incomes and a shared profile of large family homes. Both suburbs sit well above the national figure for typical household income and house sizes. While Duncraig has more public transport stops and a younger First Nations population, both areas are effectively alike in the share of residents who served in the Defence Force and the amount of unpaid housework performed by residents.
