Benaraby Iveragh

Benaraby and Iveragh are nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Benaraby is much wealthier, with 33.5% of households earning $3,000 or more a week compared to 18.2% in Iveragh. It is also a younger place, where the typical resident is 41, while those in Iveragh are far older at 49. Housing styles differ sharply; 85.6% of Benaraby's homes are separate houses, but in Iveragh, townhouse or semi-detached homes are the most common. Benaraby also has more families with children and a much higher share of people with no religion (46.3% versus 23.0% in Iveragh).

Both areas are very similar in other ways, such as having roughly the same number of people per home and a similar share of residents born overseas. They are both almost entirely car-dependent, with no public transport stops or departures per 1,000 people. This lack of transit is a shared reality for both, although Benaraby has slightly more walkable access to parks and a school.
