Grange Kelvin Grove - Herston

Kelvin Grove - Herston and Grange are neighbouring Brisbane areas with very different profiles. Kelvin Grove - Herston is a young, transient hub where the typical resident is 29 and 63% of homes are rented. It is highly diverse, with 39% of people born overseas and 30.2% using a language other than English at home. In contrast, Grange is a wealthier family area where residents are far older, with a typical age of 37. Family life is more prominent there, as 24.1% of the population are children under 15, and 80.3% of homes are separate houses.

Since 2011, the gap between these two areas has grown across several measures, particularly in wealth and housing. The difference in typical household income has widened to $1,484, and the divide between renters and homeowners has increased. Despite these diverging trends, they share a high level of education and job skills, and both are fully served by 15-minute-city walksheds.
