Banana Gladstone Hinterland

Banana and Gladstone Hinterland are two regional Queensland areas with different local priorities. Banana is more walkable, with 25.3% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries compared to 12% in Gladstone Hinterland. Working from home is far more common in Banana, where 21.2% do so, while only 6.2% of people in Gladstone Hinterland work from home. There is also a notable difference in faith; 44.5% of Gladstone Hinterland residents have no religion, which is far higher than the 28.2% in Banana.

Since 2011, the gap in religious affiliation has widened, while the difference in the share of older residents has narrowed. Despite these shifts, the two areas remain very similar in other ways. They share a similar proportion of First Nations people, typical weekly personal incomes, and nearly identical rates of long-term health conditions. Both areas also sit well above the national figure for volunteers, though this is more pronounced in Banana.
