Thankfully the world is coming back to it’s senses, and has yet again felt the need to talk about Kippax, Charny, Dunlop and Holt. Even the Canberra Times in their Anzac day pinger letheragy has come to the party here.

Unfortunately yet again, it is due to the fact that said suburbs are among the least affulent, according to the latest annual data output from the Taxation Department. Surprisingly, Manuka, Red Hill, Forrest and Griffith were the areas richest lot, with a special mention to the emerging Chardonnay socialists in Hall. One wanders what the income stream will be like after a good dose of fruit fly in the Hall district.

Good figures for Canberra accross the board. We still are seen statistically as middle class city, with a shitload of superannuation (Thanks PSS!) , and a weekly income only bettered by Northern Terriotry.

Enjoy, beancounters, enjoy.
