Kenmore Zone Profile

A pres­ti­gi­ous Zone pop­u­lar with pro­fes­sion­als, the Ken­more Zone is situ­ated in the west of the city and close to the semi-rural sub­urbs of Mog­gill and Brook­field. Over 47% of house­holds in this area are com­prised of couples with chil­dren, 37% are couples without chil­dren and 13% are single par­ent fam­il­ies. This Zone incor­por­ates the sub­urbs of Ken­more, Ken­more DC and Ken­more East.

A low crime rate and access to shop­ping centres makes it an ideal fam­ily atmo­sphere. Avail­ab­il­ity of play­groups, child­care, kinder­gartens or schools in this area makes it attract­ive to fam­il­ies with pre-school and school-age chil­dren. Avail­ab­il­ity of retire­ment homes and excel­lent med­ical facil­it­ies also make it attract­ive for the older generation.

Com­munity ser­vices which cater for the grow­ing fam­ily, chil­dren and youth from single par­ent fam­il­ies would be in high demand. KBC Growth Groups which are fam­ily friendly or cater for the prac­tical needs of the over 60’s age group in this Zone, would provide a highly valu­able resource to this com­munity. Part­ner­ships with aged care sup­port ser­vices in the Zone would provide great min­istry oppor­tun­it­ies for KBC Growth Groups.
