Doonan Tewantin

Tewantin and Doonan are neighbouring Queensland areas with very different profiles. Tewantin is more populous and developed, acting as a hub where 31.9% of people are aged 65 and over and 25.5% of homes are rented. In contrast, Doonan is a more affluent, car-dependent area where typical weekly household income is far higher at $2,096, compared to $1,263 in Tewantin. Doonan also has a more qualified workforce, with 26.0% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, compared to 16.0% in Tewantin.

These two neighbours share several commonalities, including very similar proportions of First Nations people, volunteers, and people who have moved in the last five years. They also have nearly identical typical weekly rents. These similarities exist alongside a sharp divide in accessibility; Tewantin is somewhat walkable with many residents living within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services, while Doonan is car-dependent and has far fewer walkable amenities.
