Harrisville Limestone Ridges

Harrisville and Limestone Ridges are neighbouring areas in the Scenic Rim with very different layouts. Harrisville is more developed, with three schools and a walkability score that is mostly car-dependent, while Limestone Ridges is car-dependent. This makes Harrisville much more accessible, as 65% of its homes are within a 15-minute walk of a park and 60.1% are near a school. Economic profiles also differ; Limestone Ridges has a higher share of high earners, with 21.7% of households making $3,000 or more a week compared to 16.4% in Harrisville.

Everyday life is similar in both places, with almost identical rates of people born overseas and very similar typical home sizes. Both areas are completely reliant on cars, as no one commutes by public transport.
