Greenbushes North Greenbushes

Greenbushes and North Greenbushes are neighbouring areas in Western Australia with very different lifestyles. Greenbushes is more walkable and serves as a hub, with 93.6% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school and 94.7% near a park. It has a much older population, with 28.8% aged 65 and over, and many more people living alone (41.1%). North Greenbushes is more car-dependent, has a far higher typical weekly income of $780 compared to $483 in Greenbushes, and is more likely to be home to people working in construction.

While the two areas differ in their layout, the gap in the typical age of residents has remained relatively small and stable, with both areas sitting far older than the national figure. They share several common traits, including a total lack of recent overseas arrivals and the same street connectivity. Every home in both areas is a separate detached house, and almost no one in either place speaks a language other than English at home.
