Roland Wilmot

Wilmot and Roland are neighbouring Tasmanian areas with distinct social profiles. Wilmot is more diverse, with a higher share of First Nations people (5.2% compared to 0%) and people born overseas (15% versus 10.2%). It also has more people living alone (40.3% versus 18.2%) and a much higher unemployment rate, which is 12.4% compared to 0.0% in Roland. Roland has a much older senior population, with 30.7% aged 65 and over compared to 18.1% in Wilmot.

Both areas are very similar in their housing and infrastructure, with every home being a separate detached house and most having three or more bedrooms. This shared rural character is reflected in their lack of public transport and the fact that no homes in either place are within a 15-minute walk of health services. While Wilmot has slightly more walkable amenities, such as groceries and schools, both areas remain largely car-dependent.
