Jordan is more likely to be owner-occupied, with 94.5% of homes being separate houses and 27.6% of households earning $3,000 or more a week. Jordan also has a higher share of young families, with 25.7% of the population under 15 and 37.3% of people providing unpaid child care.
Both areas sit close to the national figure for rental rates, with Jordan at 30.4% and Inala at 42.3%. They also share similar rates of volunteering and long-term health conditions. However, Inala is much more walkable (somewhat walkable) than Jordan (mostly car-dependent), with far more people living within a short walk of shops, schools, and transport. This gap in accessibility remains stark, while differences in typical weekly family income have narrowed since 2011.
