Lamb Island Steiglitz

Steiglitz (Qld) and Lamb Island are two nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Steiglitz (Qld) has a younger feel, with 15.0% of people under 15 compared to just 4.6% in Lamb Island. It is also a wealthier area, where the typical household earns $1,407 a week, far higher than the $667 typical in Lamb Island. This is reflected in the housing, as Steiglitz (Qld) has a far higher share of homes with three or more bedrooms (81.7% versus 34.0%) and typical monthly mortgage payments that are much higher at $2,026.

These two places have tracked differently since 2011, with the gap in typical ages widening as Lamb Island becomes much older. In Lamb Island, the typical resident is 63, and nearly 40% of people are aged 65 and over, which helps explain why 47.8% of residents live with a long-term health condition. Both areas are similarly remote from services, as neither has any homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. However, Lamb Island is more reliant on public transport and has a higher share of people working from home.
