Ellangowan Felton South

Ellangowan (Qld) and Felton South are both sparsely populated rural areas in Queensland. They differ sharply in housing and education; Felton South has a much higher share of people who completed Year 12 (66.7% compared to 38.5% in Ellangowan (Qld)) and a far higher proportion of homes owned outright (70.0% versus 48.5%). In contrast, Ellangowan (Qld) has a much higher rental rate at 27.3%, while nobody in Felton South rents. Ellangowan (Qld) also has a higher share of high earners, with 16.9% of people earning $2,000 or more a week, compared to just 6.8% in Felton South.

These two neighbours have tracked similarly over time, as both areas maintain a typical resident age of 44 and an identical share of volunteers at around 31%. They also share a lack of public transport and a total absence of residents who identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. However, Felton South is more likely to have larger households and more children under 15, which helps explain why its share of people caring for children unpaid is far higher at 33.9%.
