Walloon and Karrabin are neighbouring areas in Ipswich with very different layouts.

Walloon also has a younger population, with a typical age of 35 and a higher share of children under 15 (22.1%). In contrast, Karrabin has a higher proportion of high-earning households, with 31.7% earning $3,000 or more a week compared to 20.5% in Walloon.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of people aged 65 and over, at around 14%.
