In contrast, Guilderton (L) is sparsely populated and far older, with a typical age of 62 and 44.3% of people aged 65 and over. Yanchep is also more diverse and wealthier, with 37.7% of people born overseas and a typical weekly household income of $1,697, which is far higher than the $949 seen in Guilderton (L).
Both areas have remained similar in their housing styles, as almost all residents in both places live in separate houses. They also share a similar proportion of renters, at around 21%.
