Lutana Risdon

Lutana and Risdon are neighbouring areas in Tasmania with very different profiles. Lutana is a more populated and connected hub, where a typical resident is more likely to have a bachelor degree and be born overseas. It is also a diverse community, with 19.7% of people using another language at home and 31.2% being recent arrivals from overseas. By contrast, Risdon is sparsely populated and more car-dependent, with a higher share of people who own their homes outright and more adults with long-term health conditions.

These two places share a very similar typical weekly personal income, with Lutana at $750 and Risdon at $752. They are also alike in the share of people who identify as First Nations and those who have no religion. However, the gap in accessibility is stark; Lutana is somewhat walkable and nearly all homes are within a 15-minute walk of a park, while Risdon is car-dependent and only 15.5% of homes are near a park.
