Redlynch Daintree

Daintree and Redlynch are two very different Queensland areas located about 90km apart. Redlynch is much wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $2,193 compared to $1,201 in Daintree. Education levels are also far higher in Redlynch, where 25.1% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, while only 11.9% do in Daintree. The two areas differ in age and housing too; Daintree is far older, with a typical resident aged 47, and more people there live alone (29.8%) or own their homes outright (37.5%).

Both areas share a very similar climate and almost identical rates of volunteering and unemployment. They also have nearly the same proportion of people who speak little or no English. However, many of the gaps between them have grown since 2011. This is seen in the widening difference in typical incomes and the fact that the age gap has increased to nine years.
