Bayview The Gardens

Bayview and The Gardens are neighbouring areas in Darwin with very different profiles. Bayview is wealthier, with 50.2% of households earning $3,000 or more a week compared to 25.5% in The Gardens. This prosperity is reflected in the housing; 93.6% of homes in Bayview have three or more bedrooms, while only 39.5% do in The Gardens. Bayview also has a much higher share of separate houses (37.5% versus 2.1%) and more adults working or looking for work. In contrast, The Gardens is very walkable, with 99% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and a high proportion of residents living alone (37.8%).

Both areas are almost identical when it comes to how many people commute by public transport. They also share similar unemployment rates, around 3%, and both have every home within a 15-minute walk of a park. While Bayview is mostly car-dependent, The Gardens is very walkable.
