Weddell Bakewell

Weddell and Bakewell are nearby areas with very different layouts. Weddell is a more rural setting where 95.1% of homes are separate houses and the typical resident is 40. Bakewell is much denser, with 31.8% of people living in flats or apartments and a younger typical age of 32. Bakewell has far more cultural diversity, with 23.1% of people born overseas and 18.4% using another language at home, compared to 12.8% and 6.2% in Weddell. This diversity is reflected in the workforce, as Bakewell has a far higher share of adults working or looking for work (75.8% vs 59.0%).

These two areas share a very similar typical household income of around $1,960 a week and nearly identical numbers of First Nations residents. They also both have similar rates of people with long-term health conditions. While they share these basics, their environments differ greatly; Bakewell is highly walkable with most homes near parks and shops, whereas Weddell is car-dependent and further from the city. Over time, the gap in overseas births and language use has widened, while the difference in home ownership has narrowed.
