Baulkham Hills Granville

Granville and Baulkham Hills are neighbouring areas with very different housing and income profiles. Baulkham Hills has a much wealthier population, with a typical weekly household income of $2,664 compared to $1,664 in Granville. Homes in Baulkham Hills are more likely to be large, separate houses—80% are detached homes—while Granville has many more apartments and a much higher rental rate of 47.9%. Granville is also far more multicultural, with 63.5% of people using another language at home and a much higher proportion of recent overseas arrivals.

They do share some common ground, such as having nearly identical proportions of children under 15. Life in Granville is more convenient for those without a car, as it is a walker's paradise with most homes within easy reach of shops and health services. In contrast, Baulkham Hills is only somewhat walkable and has far fewer homes without a motor vehicle.
