Dixie Yarraden

Yarraden and Dixie (Qld) are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. They differ significantly in their demographics and income; the typical resident in Yarraden is far older at 46 compared to 33 in Dixie (Qld). Yarraden is also more affluent, with a typical weekly household income of $1,437, while Dixie (Qld) is far lower at $575. Additionally, Yarraden has a much higher share of people born overseas at 13.2%, whereas no one in Dixie (Qld) was born overseas.

Both areas are effectively alike in that no one speaks little or no English and neither has any residents who have served in the Defence Force. This shared sparsity is reflected in their lack of public transport and the fact that no homes in either area are within a 15-minute walk of a park or school.
