Condamine Toowoomba North

Condamine and Toowoomba North are nearby areas with similar population sizes but very different characters. Toowoomba North is a very walkable hub where 31.1% of people live alone and 36.1% rent their homes. In contrast, Condamine is car-dependent, with far fewer renters (20.4%) and more people living in large households; 88.3% of its homes have three or more bedrooms. Toowoomba North also sees much more international diversity, with 26.3% of residents arriving from overseas recently, compared to just 8.8% in Condamine.

Daily life in both places shares several commonalities, such as a typical resident age of 39 and a typical weekly rent of $295. They also have similar shares of people who volunteer or provide unpaid care. While they share these basics, the gaps in housing and demographics are changing. Since 2011, the lead has flipped for both the share of separate houses and the number of people with university degrees, with both measures now being higher in Condamine and Toowoomba North respectively.
