7007, TAS 7008, TAS

Postcode 7008 and postcode 7007 are neighbouring areas in Greater Hobart with very different layouts. Postcode 7008 is very walkable, with 71.5% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 78.6% near health services. In contrast, postcode 7007 is only somewhat walkable, and almost no homes (0.3%) are within a short walk of groceries. Postcode 7007 generally has more money and resources, with 50.3% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 41.8% in postcode 7008.

These two areas have tracked in different directions since 2011. While the gap in university qualifications has narrowed, the difference in home ownership has widened, with more people now owning their homes outright in postcode 7007. Despite these shifts, they remain similar in other ways; both have around 25% of their population born overseas and nearly identical typical weekly personal incomes, which sit around the national figure.
