Coffs Harbour Repton

Coffs Harbour and Repton (L) are nearby areas in New South Wales with very different profiles. Coffs Harbour is a large centre where 33.4% of households rent and 18.6% of people arrived recently from overseas. In contrast, Repton (L) is a much smaller area where 45.8% of homes are owned outright and no one has arrived from overseas recently. Repton (L) is more highly qualified, with 28.8% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 17.9% in Coffs Harbour. This is reflected in the housing and layout, as Repton (L) is car-dependent with 93.1% separate houses, while Coffs Harbour is somewhat walkable with a mix of housing types and more services within walking distance.

The gap in home ownership and rental rates has widened since 2011. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas share some basic characteristics, such as a similar proportion of children under 15 (around 17%) and typical weekly personal incomes that are nearly identical at about $682 to $685. They also both have populations that are older than the national figure.
