Capital Hill

1 km²

A tiny population of just 3 people makes Capital Hill a sparsely populated area. It is dominated by a very elderly population, with a typical resident aged 82, which is far older than the national figure. Despite the small number of residents, the area is highly connected to public transport and schools. This creates a unique pocket within the Australian Capital Territory where most homes are within a short walk of essential services.

Capital Hill's schools draw a more advantaged community than local incomes would suggest.
