Bonner Fadden

Fadden and Bonner are both large residential areas in Queensland, but they differ sharply in education and accessibility. In Bonner, 32.5% of adults have a bachelor degree or higher, compared to 19.0% in Fadden. This gap in qualifications is matched by income; 29.6% of Bonner households earn $3,000 or more a week, while that figure is 18.8% in Fadden. Bonner is also much more walkable, with 77.4% of homes within a 15-minute walk of key services, compared to 50.6% in Fadden. Residents of Fadden face a longer commute to the city, taking 34 minutes on average compared to 16 minutes for those in Bonner.

Both areas share a very similar proportion of people born overseas, at around 31%. They also have nearly identical rates of people living alone and similar typical weekly rents, which sit between $425 and $440. Since 2011, the gap in higher education and high incomes has widened between the two areas.
