Fifteen Mile White Mountain

Fifteen Mile and White Mountain are both sparsely populated, neighbouring areas in the Lockyer Valley. There are stark differences in wealth between them; typical weekly family income is far higher in Fifteen Mile at $4,083, compared to $1,074 in White Mountain. This gap is seen across all income measures, which is consistent with Fifteen Mile having much higher typical monthly home-loan payments of $2,080. White Mountain is more isolated, with a drive time to the city that is far higher than in Fifteen Mile.

Both areas are completely car-dependent and lack walkable amenities. Residents in both places live in homes without a 15-minute walk to a park, school, or grocery store. While they share these challenges, the income gap between these two neighbours has widened since 2011.
