Bora Ridge vs New Italy

Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 12 km apart · Bora Ridge profile · New Italy profile

Bora Ridge New Italy

New Italy and Bora Ridge are two nearby rural areas with small populations. New Italy is more diverse and mobile, with a much higher share of people who have no religion (59.4%) and those who moved in the last five years (34.2%). It also has a much higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population (9.6%) and a higher typical weekly income of $624. In contrast, Bora Ridge has a much higher proportion of homes owned outright (64.3%) and consists entirely of separate houses.

Both areas are very similar in that they are entirely dependent on cars, with no one commuting by public transport and every home owning a motor vehicle. They also share a similar proportion of residents born overseas. While New Italy has far more public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people, Bora Ridge is more likely to have households with two or more vehicles.
