A small suburb with outsized income and zero shortage of competition.
Ashburton is a small, quiet pocket of Boroondara, population 7,952, that punches above its size in income rather than industry. There isn't a lot of commercial density here: an estimated 1,270 local businesses, mostly the shops and trades along High Street and Ashburn Grove. Zoom out, though, and professional, scientific and technical services lead Boroondara with 5,078 businesses, more than any other sector in the council area. Household income in Ashburton itself runs to $2,743 a week, the kind of number that explains why a local tradesperson can charge properly and still stay booked out.
You'd expect a suburb of 7,952 people to be too small to have any real competition for a local business. It isn't. Ashburton sits close to Ashwood and other high-income neighbouring suburbs, so a physiotherapist, electrician, mortgage broker or dentist isn't just competing with the practice down the road, they're competing with everyone within a ten-minute drive who already looks credible online. At $3,422 a week in median family income, these are customers who expect quality and will pay for it, but they'll scroll past a site that looks like it was built a decade ago. A slow-loading site or a hidden phone number doesn't just lose an enquiry, it hands that enquiry to whoever's two suburbs over and already has their act together.
