Braemeadows Orient

Braemeadows and Orient are two nearby rural areas in Queensland, though they differ sharply in their makeup. Braemeadows is home to 269 people, while Orient is sparsely populated with only 6 residents. The typical resident in Braemeadows is far older at 52, compared to 31 in Orient. This difference is mirrored in the homes; Orient has far more people per home (4.0) and per bedroom (1.30) than Braemeadows, where the typical home holds 2.4 people. Orient also has a well higher typical weekly household income of $2,250, compared to $1,768 in Braemeadows.

Both areas are completely car-dependent, with no residents living within a 15-minute walk of a park, school, or grocery store. This shared isolation is a constant, even as the income gap between the two areas has widened. While Braemeadows is more established with four schools within 3 km and a larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population, both places remain very far from the national figure for walkability.
