Hinton Paterson

Hinton (L) and Paterson (L) are two small neighbours in New South Wales with very different layouts. Paterson (L) is very walkable, with 96.2% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport and 82.1% near groceries. In contrast, Hinton (L) is mostly car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries. Hinton (L) also has a wealthier profile, with 32.3% of households earning $3,000 or more a week compared to 19.9% in Paterson (L), and a higher share of large homes, with 91.7% having three or more bedrooms.

Both areas share a similar pace of life, with almost identical rates of people working or looking for work and virtually no recent overseas arrivals. They also both have very few people who speak little or no English. While the two areas are similar in these ways, some gaps are closing; for instance, the difference in typical household income has narrowed since 2011. However, the gap in religious views has grown, with no religion being far more common in Paterson (L) than in Hinton (L).
