Grove Lower Longley

Grove and Lower Longley are neighbouring areas in Tasmania, though they differ in their residents and layout. Grove is younger, with a typical resident aged 41 compared to 47 in Lower Longley. It has a much higher share of people caring for children unpaid (29.0% versus 18.9%) and more children under 15. Lower Longley is more affluent, with a typical weekly household income of $2,078, which is well higher than Grove's $1,625.
