Hayes Plenty

Hayes and Plenty (Tas.) are two sparsely populated neighbouring areas in the Derwent Valley. They differ sharply in family life and housing; Hayes has far more children (20.2% compared to 4.5% in Plenty (Tas.)) and a much higher share of one-parent families. Home ownership also varies, with 61.8% of Hayes homes owned outright, while only 24% of homes in Plenty (Tas.) are owned this way. In contrast, Plenty (Tas.) is more likely to have people living alone (40.0% versus 14.7% in Hayes) and a higher proportion of adults working or looking for work (76.3% compared to 56.5% in Hayes).

Everyday life is very similar in both places, as all homes in both areas are separate houses and no one commutes by public transport. Their typical weekly personal incomes are nearly identical, sitting at $587 in Hayes and $589 in Plenty (Tas.). While some gaps have shifted, both areas remain far below the national figure for Year 12 completion, though this is more pronounced in Hayes where only 31.5% have finished school.
