Suburb profile

North Hobart is an inner metropolitan suburb of Hobart, in Hobart Council, where heritage streetscapes sit alongside mixed commercial and residential development. Notable landmarks include Church Hill, Crescent Hotel and Queen's Head Hotel.

Dining and cafés are a relative strength, placing it among the highest-ranked inner metropolitan suburbs. Everyday destinations are relatively walkable. School access is strong, with school access 100% above the peer median. Rents are unusually low against comparable places, with median rents 21% below the peer median. Trade-offs centre on higher crime and thinner park access, with park access 68% below the peer median.

North Hobart is a better fit for people who value lower rents and dining more than peace and quiet.

Methodology

Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.

The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~2,950), extrapolated at +1.3% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?

IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.

IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.

A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
