Emu Heights Montello

Montello and Emu Heights (Tas.) are neighbouring areas in Tasmania with very different profiles. Montello is more walkable (score 6.2) and has far more people aged 65 and over (18.9% compared to 6.0% in Emu Heights (Tas.)). Housing differs notably, with Emu Heights (Tas.) having far more separate houses (100.0%) and three-bedroom homes (84.4%), while renting is far more common in Montello (37.0%).

The two areas share a very similar foundation, with both having a typical resident age of 40 and almost identical weekly family incomes of around $1,350. This common ground exists alongside a widening gap in mobility and access, as Montello's walkability remains far higher and its residents are far more likely to live within a 15-minute walk of schools and groceries.
