Linden Yarramundi

Yarramundi and Linden are both small residential areas in New South Wales, but they differ sharply in wealth and age. Yarramundi is a high-earning area where 45.9% of households make $3,000 or more a week and the typical weekly rent is $800. In contrast, Linden has a noticeably older population, with 20.1% of residents aged 65 and over compared to just 9.4% in Yarramundi. Linden also has a much higher share of university-educated adults at 34.3%, while Yarramundi's figure is 16.0%.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for home ownership, with around 39% of homes owned outright. They also share a reliance on cars, as every single home in both places has a motor vehicle and neither has any residents who speak little or no English. While both are mostly car-dependent, Linden is slightly more walkable and has far better access to parks and public transport. Since 2011, the income gap between them has widened significantly, with Yarramundi's typical household income pulling well ahead of Linden's.
