Banora Point Chinderah

Banora Point and Chinderah are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Chinderah is a much older community, where the typical resident is 62 and 45.8% are aged 65 or over. In contrast, Banora Point is younger, with a typical age of 49. This difference is reflected in the housing; Banora Point has far more large family homes, with 78.9% having three or more bedrooms, while typical weekly incomes are also far higher there at $1,268 compared to $719 in Chinderah.

Everyday life in both places shares several similarities, including very low rates of people who speak little or no English and almost identical levels of unemployment.

While both areas have populations far older than the national figure, Chinderah is even more so, with a much higher share of people living alone and more homes owned outright.
