Somme Springdale

Springdale (Qld) and Somme are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. Somme has a much older population, with a typical resident aged 62 and 28.2% of people aged 65 and over, while Springdale (Qld) has no residents in that older age group. Somme also has a more qualified workforce, with 25% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to none in Springdale (Qld). In contrast, Springdale (Qld) has a higher typical weekly household income of $1,437, and it is far more likely that a resident earns $2,000 or more per week.

Both areas are entirely car-dependent and lack any walkable amenities. They also share a similar absence of residents who use a language other than English at home. While they are quite different in age and income, both areas have tracked similarly in their lack of public transport options. In Somme, health needs are more common, with 33.3% of people having a long-term health condition, which is much higher than the 10.7% seen in Springdale (Qld).
