Caboolture Hinterland Sunshine Coast Hinterland

Sunshine Coast Hinterland and Caboolture Hinterland are both regional Queensland areas, but they differ significantly in their layouts and demographics. Sunshine Coast Hinterland is more developed for pedestrians, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of a park (63.5% compared to 36.9%) and a far higher share of people who finished Year 12 (54.4% versus 39.7%). Religion and migration also mark them apart: Sunshine Coast Hinterland has a far higher share of people with no religion (48.8% versus 38.6%), while Caboolture Hinterland has a far higher share of recent arrivals from overseas (18.9% versus 7.1%).

These two areas share many similarities in daily life, with almost identical typical weekly incomes and the same average of 2.6 people per home. They also both have very low rates of public transport use for commuting. Over time, some gaps have grown; the difference in Year 12 completion and the share of people with no religion have both widened since 2011. This is also true for the share of First Nations residents, which is now well higher in Caboolture Hinterland.
