Wynyard Stanley

Wynyard and Stanley (L) are two nearby Tasmanian areas with very different profiles. Stanley (L) has more people working or looking for work (61.0% compared to 47.0% in Wynyard) and higher typical weekly household incomes ($1,368 against $976). It is also more walkable, with 96.4% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and schools. Wynyard is a larger hub with more residents, but it has a higher share of people aged 65 and over (30.4%) and more people needing help with daily activities (10.1% compared to 3.0% in Stanley (L)).

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, maintaining their core characteristics while remaining very walkable. They share several traits, such as having the same typical weekly rent of around $220 and the same number of people per home. While Wynyard has far better access to health services, both areas have a similarly low share of people who speak little or no English (0.1% or less), which is well below the national figure.
