Tieri Wyuna

Tieri and Wyuna (Qld) are two distinct Queensland areas with very different social profiles. Tieri is a younger and more mobile hub where the typical resident is 29 and 57.2% of people moved there in the last five years. It has a much higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people (10.1%) and people born overseas (11.1%) than Wyuna (Qld). Tieri also sees far more high earners, with 33% of people earning $2,000 or more a week, which is among the highest for its area type.

These two places have tracked in opposite directions since 2011, with Tieri becoming more mobile and Wyuna (Qld) more stable. While they share similar rates of de facto relationships, they differ in how people live and work. Wyuna (Qld) is far more car-dependent and residential, with 33.3% of people working from home and a typical resident who is far older at 41. In contrast, Tieri is more concentrated, with more people walking to work and a typical monthly home-loan payment of just $33, which is far below the national figure.
