Hobart Queens Domain

Hobart and Queens Domain are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Hobart is a populous hub where the typical resident is just 31 and 39.1% were born overseas. It has a highly educated workforce, with 42.6% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, and is a walker's paradise. In contrast, Queens Domain is sparsely populated and much older, with a typical age of 63. It is far wealthier, where the typical household earns $3,124 a week compared to $1,464 in Hobart. The area also has a far higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 12.9%.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the number of people who care for children unpaid. They also share a similar typical weekly rent, which is around $380 to $390. While Hobart has far more people who use another language at home, it is much more likely that residents in both areas have moved in the last five years compared to the rest of Australia.
