Fannie Bay Parap

Fannie Bay and Parap are neighbouring areas with similar populations, though they offer different living patterns. Fannie Bay has more three-bedroom homes and a higher share of residents who own their homes outright, at 23.4%. In contrast, Parap has a much higher proportion of renters, at 61.4%, and more recent overseas arrivals, who make up 27.2% of its population. Parap is also a walker's paradise with better access to health services and more frequent public transport, while Fannie Bay is very walkable.
