Bonnet Bay Kirrawee

Kirrawee and Bonnet Bay are neighbouring areas with very different housing and lifestyles. Kirrawee is a denser hub where 29.5% of homes are rented and 34.7% are flats or apartments, while Bonnet Bay is almost entirely separate houses (99.3%) with only 5% of homes rented. This difference is reflected in the homes themselves; 97.6% of homes in Bonnet Bay have three or more bedrooms, compared to 63% in Kirrawee. Kirrawee is also more transient, with 41.1% of people moving in the last five years, and it is a walker's paradise with a walkability score of 8.2. In contrast, Bonnet Bay is somewhat walkable with a score of 5.5, though it has a much higher share of high-income households, with 49.8% earning $3,000 or more a week.

These two areas have tracked apart as the gap in housing types and ownership has widened. Despite this, they share several common traits, such as an almost identical share of children under 15 (around 18%) and very similar unemployment rates of about 3%. Both areas also have a similar proportion of people born overseas, sitting between 21% and 22%, which is higher than the national figure.
