Bray Park Petrie

Bray Park and Petrie are neighbouring areas in Queensland with distinct local profiles. Bray Park has a much higher proportion of separate houses at 96.8% and more people using another language at home (10.3%). It is also more walkable for shopping, with 92.3% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries. In contrast, Petrie has a more qualified workforce, with 18.4% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 13.8% in Bray Park. Petrie also has a higher share of people who report no religion at 49.6%.

These two areas share many core characteristics, including very similar proportions of people born overseas (around 19%) and typical weekly household incomes. While they are alike in these respects, some gaps have grown since 2011. The difference in the share of separate houses has widened, and Petrie now has a notably higher share of people working from home. This is consistent with Petrie's higher levels of education and job skills compared to Bray Park.
