Bulgun Tully

Tully and Bulgun are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different characters. Tully is a more diverse and transient hub, where 18.8% of people were born overseas and 22.2% arrived recently from abroad. It is also more walkable (somewhat walkable) and has a much higher share of renters at 38.9%. In contrast, Bulgun is a car-dependent area where the population is far older, with a typical age of 48 compared to 38 in Tully. Housing in Bulgun is almost entirely separate houses, and 89.1% of homes have three or more bedrooms.

These two places are almost identical when it comes to typical weekly personal income, which is $727 in Tully and $684 in Bulgun. This similarity exists alongside other shared traits, such as nearly equal shares of adults with a bachelor degree or higher.
