Fadden Isaacs

Fadden and Isaacs are neighbouring areas in the Australian Capital Territory with very different cultural profiles. Isaacs has a far higher share of people born overseas (35.6%) and those using another language at home (30.6%), while Fadden is far more likely to have residents who speak a First Nations language (16.1%). Fadden is also more family-oriented, with a well higher share of children under 15 (19.2%) and far more separate houses (96.7%) compared to Isaacs.

Both areas are almost identical in the number of schools within 3 km and the share of people who volunteer. While the two areas share these commonalities, the gaps between them are shifting. The difference in the proportion of people born overseas and those using another language at home has narrowed since 2011, though Isaacs remains much more diverse. At the same time, Fadden has become more distinct from Isaacs in its housing, with the gap in separate houses widening over the last decade.
