Keriri Island Punsand

Keriri Island and Punsand are two nearby areas in Queensland with very different profiles. Keriri Island is a young place where the typical resident is 23, and homes are often crowded with 3.4 people per dwelling. In contrast, Punsand is sparsely populated and the residents are far older, with a typical age of 35. There is also a large gap in earnings; the typical weekly personal income in Punsand is $833, which is far higher than the $453 seen on Keriri Island.

These differences in income and age appear to be widening over time. Despite this, both areas share some commonalities, such as a typical weekly rent of $120. They are both car-dependent for getting around, and neither has any homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or parks.
