Statistical Area 2 (SA2) comparison ≈ 3.5 km apart · Kenny profile · Hackett profile

Kenny Hackett

Hackett and Kenny are neighbouring areas in the Australian Capital Territory with very different profiles. Hackett is a residential hub where residents are far older, with a typical age of 40 compared to just 17 in Kenny. There is also a significant difference in wealth; the typical weekly household income in Hackett is $2,623, which is far higher than the $1,375 seen in Kenny. Hackett is also more convenient for daily life, as it is very walkable and has a much shorter drive time to the city, taking only 9 minutes compared to 37 minutes for Kenny.

Both areas are about the same as the national figure when it comes to typical weekly rent, with Hackett at $374. This shared level of affordability sits alongside other similarities, such as having the same number of schools and the same access to parks within a 15-minute walk. However, some gaps have grown over time; the difference in typical weekly personal income has widened since 2016, and the age gap between the two areas has also increased significantly.
