Biloela Jambin

Biloela and Jambin are nearby Queensland areas with very different scales and characters. Biloela is a larger hub where 38.8% of households rent and 58.3% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries. In contrast, Jambin is a sparsely populated area where 44.4% of homes are owned outright and everyone lives in a separate house. The two areas also differ in their workforce; 24.8% of people in Jambin work from home, compared to just 2.5% in Biloela.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of households earning $3,000 or more a week. They also share similar family dynamics, with about 21% of households in each area reaching that income level and both having around 2.5 people per home. While Biloela is somewhat walkable, Jambin is car-dependent. Over time, the gap in the share of people who moved in the last five years has remained a point of difference, with Biloela at 37.0% and Jambin at 21.8%.
