Harvey Hoffman

Harvey and Hoffman are nearby areas in Western Australia with very different profiles. Harvey is a larger centre where typical weekly family incomes are far higher at $1,832, compared to $1,125 in Hoffman. The two areas differ sharply in their age and health profiles; Harvey has a much higher share of people aged 65 and over (23.6% versus 9.7%) and more people with long-term health conditions (29.9% versus 9.7%). In contrast, Hoffman is a sparsely populated area where residents are far older on average, with a typical age of 52 compared to 44 in Harvey.

While the two have tracked differently since 2011, they share some common ground in their low rates of public transport use. This reflects their location, as both areas have very few people commuting by public transport. However, the everyday experience of the two differs, with Harvey being somewhat walkable and Hoffman remaining car-dependent.
