Brighton Honeywood

Brighton (Tas.) and Honeywood are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Brighton (Tas.) is more walkable and diverse in its housing, with 22.3% of homes rented and a typical resident aged 34. It also has a much higher share of one-parent families (19.0%) and people living alone (22.1%). In contrast, Honeywood is car-dependent and consists entirely of separate houses, with a much higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (23.3%) and more large homes with four or more bedrooms.

Both areas share a similar unemployment rate of around 3.5% to 3.6%. They are also alike in their drive times to the city and the typical weekly rent, which sits around $340 to $350. While Brighton (Tas.) has far more public transport options and a somewhat walkable environment, Honeywood is more car-dependent. The gap in housing tenure is striking, as renting is far more common in Brighton (Tas.) than in Honeywood.
