Black Hills Hayes

Black Hills and Hayes are two sparsely populated neighbouring areas in Tasmania. Black Hills has a younger population, with a typical resident aged 40 compared to 48 in Hayes. Education and beliefs differ notably; 16.7% of adults in Black Hills hold a bachelor degree or higher, which is far higher than the 5.4% in Hayes, and people with no religion are far more common in Black Hills at 48.3% compared to 35.8% in Hayes. In contrast, Hayes has a much higher share of people who served in the Defence Force (12.8% versus 1.8%) and far more one-parent families (27.3% versus 12.9%).
