Gordonvale Green Hill

Gordonvale and Green Hill are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different profiles. Gordonvale is a larger hub where residents are far more likely to be children, with 21.7% under age 15, and the typical age is 38. It is much more walkable and connected, with a walkability score of 3.9 (mostly car-dependent) and a far higher share of homes within a 15-minute walk of parks and groceries. Green Hill is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with a much older typical resident of 48 and far fewer children.

These two areas have tracked differently since 2011, particularly in how people move. Gordonvale has seen a far higher share of people moving in over the last five years (37.0%) compared to Green Hill (19.3%). Despite these different trends, the two areas remain alike in some ways, such as having almost identical numbers of people per home and a similar share of volunteers.
