Calavos Coral Cove

Coral Cove and Calavos are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different housing and demographic profiles. Coral Cove is a more densely developed area where 92.6% of homes have three or more bedrooms and the typical weekly rent is far higher at $373. It has a much older population, with 26.7% of residents aged 65 and over, compared to 15.9% in Calavos. Calavos is more sparsely populated and has a higher share of renters (30.8%) and people living alone (30.8%), while its typical rent is much lower at $128.

These housing and rental gaps have widened since the last census. Despite this, the two areas share a similar typical weekly personal income of around $660 and a nearly identical share of people born overseas. They also have similar levels of full-time employment and a similar proportion of First Nations residents. While Coral Cove has more public transport stops and better street connectivity, both areas have a very low rate of people commuting by public transport.
