Drewvale Regents Park

Regents Park (Qld) and Drewvale are neighbouring areas in Greater Brisbane with distinct profiles. Drewvale has a far higher share of people born overseas (48.1%) and those using another language at home (49.6%), alongside a more qualified workforce where 30.2% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, Regents Park (Qld) is more walkable, with 76% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries compared to just 28.4% in Drewvale. This convenience is supported by higher street connectivity and more homes within a 15-minute walk of both schools and public transport.

Both areas are almost identical in the proportion of people aged 65 and over, which sits at 9.7%. They also share very similar typical weekly incomes and rates of full-time employment. While they are alike in these respects, Drewvale's higher proportion of university graduates is consistent with its higher share of households earning $3,000 or more per week (25.5% compared to 15.9% in Regents Park (Qld)).
