Cambridge Richmond

Richmond (Richmond - Qld) and Cambridge (Qld) are two distinct areas in Queensland, separated by about 78 km. Richmond (Richmond - Qld) is a more developed hub with 578 residents, where 69.8% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and the walkability score is somewhat walkable. In contrast, Cambridge (Qld) is sparsely populated with only 14 residents and is car-dependent. There are also sharp differences in wealth and age; the typical resident in Cambridge (Qld) is far older at 46 compared to 38 in Richmond (Richmond - Qld), and typical weekly household incomes are far higher in Cambridge (Qld) at $2,874 compared to $1,672 in Richmond (Richmond - Qld).

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011 in their lack of public transport, with neither having any routes or stops. They also share a similar landscape with very low terrain slopes. While Richmond (Richmond - Qld) is a more accessible centre with a school and health services within walking distance for many, Cambridge (Qld) remains a very quiet, residential area with no such amenities nearby.
