Booval Bundamba

Bundamba and Booval are neighbouring areas in Ipswich with very different housing and age profiles. Bundamba is much younger, with a typical resident aged 35 and a higher share of children under 15. Homes there are generally larger, with 84.1% having three or more bedrooms, and separate houses are far more common at 83.8%. In contrast, Booval is far older, with a typical age of 43. It has a much higher proportion of people living alone (44.2%) and a higher share of renters (52.1%). Booval is also a walker's paradise, while Bundamba is only somewhat walkable.

Everyday life in both places shares several common threads, including similar proportions of First Nations residents and volunteers. They also have the same typical monthly home-loan payment of $1,300 and a 28-minute drive to the city. While they share these basics, the gap in typical weekly incomes remains high, with Bundamba's $1,383 well higher than Booval's $994. This income difference is consistent with the higher proportion of adults in Bundamba who are working or looking for work.
