Old Bar Lansdowne

Old Bar and Lansdowne (L) are two same-type areas in New South Wales, though they differ in scale and layout. Old Bar is much larger and more mobile, with 44.7% of people moving in during the last five years and a far higher share of renters at 27.2%. In contrast, Lansdowne (L) is dominated by separate houses, which make up 99.3% of its homes. Old Bar also has a better-qualified workforce; 38% of residents completed Year 12 compared to 24.2% in Lansdowne (L), and more people here hold bachelor degrees.

Everyday life in both areas is similar in a few ways, as both have almost identical shares of children under 15 and nearly all homes are within a short walk of a park.
