Seville Grove · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)

Community Participation in Seville Grove

How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.

Community involvement in Seville Grove has remained largely steady since 2011, though the area is defined by a very high rate of unpaid childcare. While 35% of people provide unpaid care for children, volunteering is much lower than in most other areas. This creates a profile where home-based care is common, but formal community volunteering is less frequent.
