Braddon Civic

Braddon and Civic are neighbouring areas in the Australian Capital Territory that differ in their workforce and diversity. Braddon has a more qualified professional population, with 64.8% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 50.6% in Civic. This is consistent with Braddon having a higher share of full-time employees (75.7% vs 61.8%) and a higher typical weekly personal income of $1,512, well above Civic's $1,076. Civic is more diverse and connected, with a far higher share of people born overseas (44.3% vs 33.6%) and significantly more public transport options, including 8.27 stops per 1,000 people.

Both areas are very similar in their typical weekly household incomes, which sit around $2,200. They also share a very similar proportion of residents who have served in the Defence Force and those who volunteer. While the two areas are alike in these respects, the gap in overseas births and the use of other languages at home has narrowed since 2011. At the same time, the difference in qualification levels and full-time employment has widened over the same period.
