Dalby Nandi

Dalby and Nandi are nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Dalby is a larger hub where 35% of homes are rented and 25.7% of people live alone, compared to 16% renting and no one living alone in Nandi. Dalby also has a higher share of one-parent families (18.4% versus 3.4%) and more people with long-term health conditions (31.9% versus 20%). In contrast, Nandi is more rural and residential, with 40% of homes owned outright and a much higher rate of people working from home at 33.9%.

The typical resident in both areas is 35 years old. This shared age profile sits alongside a contrast in lifestyle and accessibility. Dalby is mostly car-dependent but has a walkability score of 3.2 and many homes within a 15-minute walk of schools and shops. Nandi is car-dependent and lacks these local amenities. While Dalby has seen a far higher number of people move in over the last five years (41.4% versus 11.6%), Nandi has a higher share of people who completed Year 12.
