Melbourne is Australia's youngest CBD

With a median age among residents of only 29 years old, Melbourne's CBD is the youngest in Australia. This is 8 years younger than the national median of 37 years old in 2011. Sydney is next, with residents 5 years younger than the national figure, followed by Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide at 3 years younger.

Median age relative to the national median age in 2011 of 37



In general, this paints a picture of CBD residents being significantly younger than those elsewhere in the country. With the high density, high octane life experienced in city centres, it is hardly surprising it is appealing to younger people.

At the other end of the scale are the cities that appeal to retirement age residents. Tropical Darwin is perhaps unsurprising as having the oldest residents of all capital cities, at 3 years older than the national median.

Surfers Paradise is included, despite not being a capital city, for its sheer size. This presents perhaps the biggest surprise among the data. Surfers is a city with a reputation for youth, yet its figure is older than the national median age, and far above thoat of Melbourne, Sydney and its SEQ neighbour Brisbane.
