Rolleston Togara

Rolleston and Togara are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. Rolleston is more developed, as it is mostly car-dependent and has 60% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school, park, and groceries. Togara is car-dependent and lacks these amenities. There are also notable social differences; Togara has a far higher share of people with no religion (46.7%) and a much higher typical weekly household income of $2,249, while Rolleston's is $1,416. Rolleston has far more people aged 65 and over (10.6%) and a higher share of one-parent families (12.7%).

Since 2011, Togara has seen a much larger increase in mobility, with 69.6% of residents moving in the last five years compared to 31.1% in Rolleston. Both areas share a very small population and have no public transport stops or Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents. They are also similar in their housing density, with about 2.6 to 3.1 people per home, which is a common trait for these two rural locations.
