61 in 100 households are families

Couples, parents, kids and grandparents: in Devonport, 61 in every 100 households are families. School runs and hand-me-downs for some, grandkids visiting for others, and the most useful neighbour is often the one who's been through it a year ahead of you.

A mixed suburb

61 in every 100 homes in Devonport are owner-occupied, below 70 across Tasmania, so the owners on your street are harder to pick out. Doorstep is made for exactly them.

Mostly houses: 94% of owner-occupied homes

3,535 of Devonport's owner-occupied homes are separate houses, with the gardens, fences, gutters and driveways that come with them. That's the stuff neighbours lend each other tools for, and swap tradie names about.
