Bonython Greenway

Greenway and Bonython are neighbouring areas with similar population sizes, but they offer very different lifestyles. Greenway is a walker's paradise with a high number of apartments, where 43.4% of people live alone and 38.8% of homes are rented. In contrast, Bonython is dominated by separate houses, with 59.3% of homes being detached and 88.9% having three or more bedrooms. Bonython also has a higher share of families, with 19.1% of its population being children under 15, compared to 10.9% in Greenway.

Daily life is quite similar in both places, with nearly identical rates of people working or looking for work and almost the same typical weekly rent. They also share a similar proportion of residents who have no religion. While Greenway has far more public transport departures and better access to health services, Bonython has a much higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week. These two areas have also both seen recorded offence rates fall since 2011, though Greenway's overall crime rate remains far higher.
