Bagdad Dysart

Bagdad and Dysart (Tas.) are two nearby Tasmanian areas with very different layouts and demographics. Bagdad is more developed and connected, with a typical household income that is well higher than in Dysart (Tas.) by $320 a week. It is also a younger place, where children under 15 make up 21.5% of the population and the typical resident is 38. In contrast, Dysart (Tas.) has a noticeably older population with a typical age of 43 and a much higher share of people living alone at 27.8%.

Transport and accessibility gaps between the two are wide. Bagdad has several public transport routes and a higher proportion of homes within a 15-minute walk of a park, while Dysart (Tas.) has no public transport stops and only 4.8% of homes near a park. Both areas share similar proportions of First Nations people (8.7%) and a nearly identical share of residents aged 65 and over, around 13%. These similarities stand out as the gaps in walkability and public transport access remain stark.
