Dunlop Latham

Dunlop and Latham (ACT) are neighbouring areas with distinct profiles regarding accessibility and home ownership. Latham (ACT) is far more walkable, with 99.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a '15-minute-city' amenity, compared to just 19.1% in Dunlop. Home ownership also differs; 31.9% of homes in Latham (ACT) are owned outright, which is far higher than the 20.3% in Dunlop. Meanwhile, Dunlop has a far higher share of First Nations people finishing Year 12 (52.8% compared to 39.0%) and a higher share of households earning $3,000 or more per week (36.6% versus 29.4%).

These differences are set against a backdrop of many similarities, as both areas have nearly identical typical weekly incomes and a similar share of residents who have served in the Defence Force. A gap that is widening is the difference in crime rate changes over the last five years; while both areas saw a drop, the fall was far steeper in Latham (ACT) at 57.3% compared to 16.3% in Dunlop. Despite these shifting trends, both areas remain well above the national figure for adults with a bachelor degree or higher.
