Beecher Clinton

Clinton (Qld) and Beecher are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Clinton (Qld) is a younger, more mobile community where the typical resident is 34 and 41.7% of people moved in during the last five years. It is described as somewhat walkable, with many homes within a 15-minute walk of parks, schools and public transport. In contrast, Beecher is car-dependent and has a much older population, with a typical age of 44. Beecher also has a higher share of wealthier households, with 33.3% earning $3,000 or more a week compared to 19.4% in Clinton (Qld).

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of adults working or looking for work. They are also similar in their housing density, with around 2.7 to 2.9 people per home. However, their housing tenure differs sharply; renting is far more common in Clinton (Qld) at 35.3%, while 40.5% of Beecher residents own their homes outright. This gap in home ownership and the difference in typical ages have remained distinct between the two neighbours.
