Bracknell Oaks

Bracknell and Oaks are neighbouring areas in Tasmania, but they have very different populations. Bracknell is a family-oriented place where 18.7% of people are children, and it has more people in de facto relationships (13.2%). In contrast, Oaks is sparsely populated and far older, with a typical resident aged 58 and 29.2% of the population aged 65 or over. Qualifications and costs also differ sharply; 20.8% of adults in Oaks hold a bachelor degree or higher, and the typical monthly home-loan payment there is $3,337, which is much higher than the $1,300 typical in Bracknell.

Both areas are very similar in their lack of local infrastructure, as no homes in either place are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or public transport. While they share these limitations, Bracknell is more accessible for families, with 67.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school. This differs from Oaks, where no homes are within that distance. Over time, Bracknell has remained more likely to have children and people working or looking for work compared to the very small population in Oaks.
