Fielding Normanton

Normanton and Fielding are two very different Queensland locations. Normanton is a larger town where 64.9% of homes are in a 15-minute-city walkshed, meaning residents can easily walk to groceries, health services, and schools. In contrast, Fielding is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with no amenities within a 15-minute walk. There are also stark financial gaps; the typical weekly personal income in Fielding is $1,437, which is far higher than the $750 seen in Normanton.

This income gap is even more pronounced among First Nations residents, who earn a typical weekly income of $2,374 in Fielding compared to $491 in Normanton. While both areas have no homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport, they differ in their populations. Normanton has a much larger First Nations community, with 774 people, while Fielding has just 4. This disparity in population and services highlights a widening gap between the two areas in terms of local infrastructure and accessibility.
