Common questions
By walk score, the most walkable Greater Hobart suburbs of 1,000 or more residents are Battery Point (100 out of 100), Hobart (100 out of 100) and South Hobart (100 out of 100). The score counts the shops, services, transport stops and pedestrian infrastructure within walking distance of the suburb's centre, from OpenStreetMap; 90 and above is exceptional. The ranking is drawn from 25 suburbs with a score.
Two of the ten suburbs on this page have a published median house price, from $615,000 in Moonah to $910,500 in West Hobart. Prices for Tasmania are ABS statistical-area (SA2) medians: each is the median for the area that carries the suburb's name. An SA2 can take in surrounding localities, so a figure can differ from sales in the suburb itself. A dash in the table means the suburb's own page publishes no median, because its source is distrusted or it rests on fewer than five recorded sales.
We do not predict which suburbs will boom, and we hold no growth figure to rank Hobart suburbs on: the medians we publish for Tasmania are ABS statistical-area (SA2) medians for 2024, and they come without a 12-month change. A figure beside a suburb here is a median, a rent, a yield, a walk score or a school ICSEA, each measured and sourced, never a forecast. Each suburb's own page shows its published median and says where it comes from.
