Angus vs Vineyard

Angus is the younger of the two, with a median age of 45 against 50 in Vineyard. In both, most households own their home and most homes are detached houses. In Vineyard, about half of households are people living alone. Houses cost more in Vineyard: a median of $1.34 million, against $185,000 in Angus, and rent is higher there too. On these figures, Angus tends to suit buyers on a tighter budget, while Vineyard suits people living alone and older residents.
