Melbourne Atlas 2006 - Housing


Icon: Housing
Most of Melbourne’s area is devoted to housing and it is still mainly a city of owner-occupied separate one and two-storey houses. However, the way Melburnians are housed is changing, with changes in household formation and housing preferences. Household growth rates in many parts of Melbourne are twice that of population growth rates at the same time as average household size is decreasing in most parts of Melbourne.
