Bunjurgen Mount Alford

Mount Alford and Bunjurgen are neighbouring rural areas in the Scenic Rim. Mount Alford is more populous and has a different household makeup, with far more people living alone (28.7% compared to 9.8% in Bunjurgen) and a much higher share of one-person homes. There is also a notable gap in typical family income, which is well higher in Mount Alford at $2,023 per week compared to $1,468 in Bunjurgen. In contrast, Bunjurgen has a far higher share of one-parent families (22.3% versus 5.5%) and a much higher proportion of people who identify with Christianity.

Everyday life is similar in both places, as neither area has any public transport stops or residents who use it to commute. Both areas are equally far from the city and share the same average school size and school advantage scores. While Mount Alford is more likely to have homes within walking distance of a school or park, both areas are largely car-dependent. This shared reliance on vehicles is consistent across the two neighbours, even as Mount Alford continues to see a higher share of people who are over 65.
