Ipswich Hinterland Ipswich Inner

Ipswich Inner and Ipswich Hinterland are two nearby Queensland areas with very different layouts. Ipswich Inner is a somewhat walkable area where 55.1% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 66.8% are near public transport. In contrast, Ipswich Hinterland is car-dependent, with a typical drive time to the city of 58 minutes. There are also notable gaps in housing and education: Ipswich Inner has a far higher share of renters (36.6% compared to 20.6%) and a higher rate of Year 12 completion (52.0% versus 41.2%).

Both areas have similar proportions of First Nations residents and an identical typical number of people per home. They also both sit near the national figure for people with long-term health conditions, at 34.7%. While they share these traits, other gaps have grown since 2011, such as the difference in home ownership and the share of people born overseas, which is now well higher in Ipswich Inner.
