Every stage of life

Median age 38. Como is a mix: young families, people mid-renovation and long-time owners, often on the same street.

1,821 homes still on a mortgage

Owners still paying it off are often the newer faces in Como: the households asking who does good gutters, where the kids play weekend sport, and whether anyone has a ladder long enough for the second storey.

37% of households are one person

2,392 households in Como are a single person. A neighbour who'll take in a parcel, feed the cat or check in after a storm matters more than any app feature. Doorstep is just how you find them.
