Civic Turner

Civic and Turner are neighbouring areas in the Australian Capital Territory with very different characters. Civic is a highly international hub where 44.3% of people were born overseas and 37.9% use a language other than English at home. It is a young, dense area with almost no houses and far more public transport and walkable amenities than its neighbour. Turner is more residential, with a higher share of detached houses (12.5%) and larger homes; 29.5% of its dwellings have three or more bedrooms compared to just 10.5% in Civic. Turner also has a more highly qualified workforce, with 65.5% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher.

These two areas are effectively equals in overall advantage and share an identical score for education and job skills. They also have nearly the same typical weekly household income, sitting around $2,232 in Civic and $2,330 in Turner. While they share these strengths, the gaps between them are shifting. The difference in the share of overseas-born residents and those using other languages has narrowed since 2011, though both remain well above the national figure.
