Spreadborough Townview

Townview and Spreadborough are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different profiles. Townview is a larger residential area where more people were born overseas (18.2%) and 11.6% use another language at home. In contrast, Spreadborough is sparsely populated and far more uniform, with no residents born overseas. There are also stark differences in housing costs; typical weekly rent is much higher in Spreadborough at $450, compared to $253 in Townview, and typical monthly home-loan payments are far higher in Spreadborough at $2,800.

Both areas share a total lack of public transport and every home is within a 15-minute walk of a park. However, the gap in how many people have moved recently is quite wide and has grown, with 43.5% of Townview residents arriving in the last five years compared to just 23.6% in Spreadborough. While Townview is more walkable with 100% of homes near a school, Spreadborough has a higher share of full-time workers (82.8%) and a higher proportion of children under 15 (45.5%).
