What the engine says about Mount Claremont

Demand 6/10: an affluent, leafy western suburb north of Claremont adjacent to UWA (4,999 residents; household income $2,835/week; 16.3% rented) with a small Mt Claremont Village pocket, HBF Stadium (WA Athletics) and Bold Park bushland — quiet, green, family-and-sport.

Demand 6/10: an affluent, leafy western suburb north of Claremont adjacent to UWA (4,999 residents; household income $2,835/week; 16.3% rented) with a small Mt Claremont Village pocket, HBF Stadium (WA Athletics) and Bold Park bushland — quiet, green, family-and-sport.

Competition 4/10: an HBF Stadium event/sport-precinct layer and an affluent local base, but most discretionary spend leaks to Claremont Quarter and Floreat Forum; a small quality village/destination format is the play.
