Kettering Snug

Snug and Kettering are neighbouring Tasmanian areas with very different lifestyles. Snug is very walkable, with 81.3% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 82.2% within 15 minutes of a school. It is also a younger place, where the typical resident is 38 and 24.9% of the population are children under 15. In contrast, Kettering is car-dependent and far older; its typical resident is 51 and it has a much higher share of people aged 65 and over (28.0%). Kettering also has more residents with a bachelor degree or higher (30.1%) and a higher proportion of homes owned outright (51.5%).

These two areas share a very similar housing and income profile, with both being dominated by detached houses and having typical weekly household incomes around $1,400. While they are alike in these ways, they are diverging in other areas. For example, the gap in education has remained significant, with Year 12 completion far higher in Kettering. Meanwhile, Snug has a much higher share of people caring for children unpaid (41.5%), which is consistent with its younger population and higher number of families with children.
