Stanthorpe is a larger hub where residents are far older, with a typical age of 50 compared to 40 in Dalcouth. Life in Stanthorpe is more urban and diverse; it is somewhat walkable, while Dalcouth is car-dependent. Stanthorpe also has a much higher share of renters (30.4% versus 7.6%) and far more people living alone (36.3% compared to 21.2%).

These areas have tracked apart since 2011, with the gap in new arrivals widening. Stanthorpe has seen many more people move in over the last five years (37.1%) than Dalcouth (18.8%).
