Brisbane - South Logan - Beaudesert

Brisbane - South and Logan - Beaudesert are both large regions in Queensland with similar populations, but they differ sharply in their layout and workforce. Brisbane - South is very walkable, with 86.1% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a city center and a high proportion of professionals. In contrast, Logan - Beaudesert is more car-dependent, with separate houses being far more common (85% compared to 69.5% in Brisbane - South). Brisbane - South also has a much higher share of university-qualified adults (38.2%) and people born overseas (37.9%), while Logan - Beaudesert has a larger First Nations population.

Many gaps between the two areas have widened since 2011, particularly regarding income and education. For example, the gap in typical weekly household income has grown to $429, and the difference in the share of adults with a bachelor's degree has increased to 25 points. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas remain identical in some basic ways: the typical resident in both is 35 years old, and home sizes are nearly the same, with an average of 2.7 to 2.8 people per home.
