Glenorchy West Moonah

Glenorchy and West Moonah are neighbouring areas with notable differences in their infrastructure and resources. Glenorchy is much larger and has more services, with 40.1% of homes within a 15 minute walk of health services and far more public transport departures per 1,000 people. West Moonah has higher levels of qualification and income, with a typical weekly household income of $1,494 compared to $1,151 in Glenorchy, and a higher share of adults with bachelor degrees (31.4% versus 22.8%).
