Raceview Ripley

Raceview and Ripley are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different profiles. Raceview is an established area where 16.1% of people are aged 65 or over and 26.1% of homes are owned outright. In contrast, Ripley is a rapidly growing hub where 72% of residents moved there in the last five years, and the population has grown by 79.9% since 2021. This growth is seen in the workforce, with 78.6% of adults in Ripley working or looking for work, compared to 61.3% in Raceview. Education levels also differ, with 66.1% of Ripley residents completing Year 12, while the figure is 48.5% in Raceview.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of people who speak little or no English. They also share similar home sizes, with about 2.7 to 2.8 people per household. While Raceview is very walkable and has far more public transport options, Ripley is mostly car-dependent and has a much longer walk to the nearest stop. These gaps in transport and housing ownership have grown since 2011, as Ripley has evolved into a newer residential centre.
