Urraween Wondunna
Urraween and Wondunna are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different profiles. Urraween is a much older community, where the typical resident is 55 and 39.6% of people are aged 65 or over. This is consistent with a higher rate of long-term health conditions (42.7%) and more people living alone (26.0%). Wondunna is younger, with a typical age of 40 and a much higher share of children under 15 (21.6%). It also has higher typical weekly incomes, at $1,875 compared to $1,063 in Urraween, and more adults working or looking for work (62.6% versus 39.1%).
Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of people who speak little or no English. They also share similar typical weekly rents, around $380 to $390, and almost identical rates of people providing unpaid care. While Urraween is more walkable—with a mostly car-dependent score of 3.2 and better access to health services and groceries—Wondunna is strictly car-dependent. These two areas have tracked similarly in some areas, but the gap in their age structures and workforce participation remains stark.
