Kenmore Indooroopilly

Indooroopilly and Kenmore are neighbouring areas with very different housing and lifestyles. Indooroopilly is a more transient and diverse hub where 44.6% of households rent and 35.2% use a language other than English at home. It is highly walkable, with 89% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries. In contrast, Kenmore is dominated by larger homes, with 92.4% being separate houses and 96.1% having three or more bedrooms. It is also more affluent, with a typical First Nations household income of $3,125 compared to $1,781 in Indooroopilly.

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in some ways while growing closer in others. The gap in language diversity and the preference for separate houses have both widened. However, the age gap has narrowed, as Kenmore's typical resident is now 40 and Indooroopilly's is 33. Despite these shifts, they remain alike in several ways, such as their high levels of education and job skills, and a similar share of people working from home at around 29%.
