Statistical Area 2 (SA2) comparison ≈ 3.2 km apart · Rockhampton - West profile · The Range - Allenstown profile

Rockhampton - West The Range - Allenstown

The Range - Allenstown and Rockhampton - West are neighbouring areas with very different layouts and lifestyles. The Range - Allenstown is more walkable, with 77.1% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries compared to 48.4% in Rockhampton - West. It also has a more highly qualified workforce, where 23.9% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, which is well higher than the 16.4% in Rockhampton - West. This is consistent with a higher share of professionals and more households earning $3,000 or more a week (21.3% versus 15.6%).

Since 2011, the gap between these two areas has widened across several measures, including education, income, and the share of people born overseas. Despite these trends, they remain very similar in other ways. Both have the same number of people per home (2.3), nearly identical typical weekly personal incomes, and about the same number of First Nations residents. They also both face a lack of public transport, with no recorded stops or departures per 1,000 people.
