Burrum - Fraser Maryborough

Maryborough (Qld) and Burrum - Fraser are two different types of communities in Queensland. Maryborough (Qld) is a more walkable area where 63.8% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of a local amenity, compared to just 15.3% in Burrum - Fraser. The two areas also differ in housing and age; Burrum - Fraser has a much older typical resident at 55 and a far higher share of outright home ownership at 52.2%. In contrast, renting is far more common in Maryborough (Qld), where 30.9% of households rent their home.

These differences exist despite the two areas being almost identical in typical weekly household income, which is around $977. Both places also share very similar levels of education and health, with about 41% of people in each area living with a long-term health condition. However, some gaps are growing; the age difference between the two has widened since 2011, and the gap in outright home ownership has also increased.
