Logan Reserve Marsden

Marsden and Logan Reserve are neighbouring areas in Queensland, but they offer very different living experiences. Marsden is a more developed hub, described as somewhat walkable, where 95.2% of homes are within a 10-minute walk of public transport. In contrast, Logan Reserve is mostly car-dependent, with only 6.1% of homes near public transport and a far higher share of separate houses at 91.2%. There are also notable gaps in education and income; Logan Reserve has a far higher share of people who finished Year 12 (57.8% compared to 47.1% in Marsden) and a higher typical household income of $1,818 per week, compared to $1,409 in Marsden.

Everyday life shares many similarities across both places, including a similar share of children under 15 and almost the same percentage of First Nations residents. Both areas have seen a lot of movement recently, though the share of people who moved in the last five years is far higher in Logan Reserve at 63.4%. While Marsden remains the more accessible of the two, Logan Reserve has a higher proportion of adults working or looking for work and a larger share of residents with a bachelor degree or higher.
