Hilton Samson

Hilton (WA) and Samson are neighbouring suburbs with very different residential profiles. Hilton (WA) is a walker's paradise, where almost every home is within a 15-minute walk of groceries, while Samson is only somewhat walkable. Hilton (WA) has a younger population with a typical age of 38 and a much higher share of renters at 29.7%. In contrast, Samson is noticeably older, with a typical age of 45, and far more people own their homes outright (47.8%).

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of people who need help with daily activities. Beyond this, they share a similar typical weekly household income and almost the same percentage of separate houses. However, they have diverged in other ways; Hilton (WA) has seen far more people move in over the last five years compared to Samson. This higher turnover in Hilton (WA) is consistent with its much larger share of renters and a higher proportion of one-parent families.
