Kingston vs Sunnyside

Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 14 km apart · Kingston profile · Sunnyside profile

Kingston Sunnyside

Sunnyside (WA) and Kingston (WA) are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. The most striking difference is the age of the people living there; residents are far older in Kingston (WA), where the typical person is 51, compared to 41 in Sunnyside (WA). Sunnyside (WA) also has a steeper landscape with a mean terrain slope of 12.2%, which is well higher than the 5.0% seen in Kingston (WA).

Both areas are completely car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or schools. They share this lack of walkable amenities, as neither area has any public transport stops or routes. This total reliance on cars is a defining feature for both, regardless of the fact that Sunnyside (WA) has a slightly higher typical household income of $2,062 compared to $1,875 in Kingston (WA).
