Why “Bondi - Tamarama - Bronte”? The ABS divides the larger suburb of Bondi into several statistical areas (SA2s); this profile covers one part of it. Other parts are listed further down. SA2 boundaries don’t always match suburb boundaries.

World-famous Sydney beach suburb with a young, transient renter population, café culture and tight competition for family-housing stock.
