Monkland Southside

Southside and Monkland are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different layouts. Southside is the larger of the two, with a noticeably older population where 26.1% are aged 65 or over. It is far more convenient for food, with 21.0% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries compared to almost none in Monkland. In contrast, Monkland has much better access to public transport, with 96.5% of homes within a 10-minute walk of a stop and far more weekly departures per 1,000 people. Monkland also has a much higher share of one-parent families at 29.5% and a First Nations unemployment rate that is far higher than in Southside.

These two neighbours have tracked closely since 2011, remaining very similar in their typical weekly household incomes and the number of people living in each home. They both share a similar percentage of people using another language at home and have nearly identical typical weekly rents. However, some gaps have widened, such as the difference in walkability and the share of residents who are older in Southside.
