Hinchinbrook Mundingburra

Hinchinbrook and Mundingburra are two Queensland areas with similar populations but very different layouts. Hinchinbrook is more car-dependent and rural, with 94.2% of homes being separate houses and a high number of children under 15 (21.6%). In contrast, Mundingburra is somewhat walkable and more urban, with 37.6% of households renting and far more people arriving from overseas recently (18.5%). Mundingburra also has a better-connected transport network, with far more public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people.

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in several ways. The gap in the number of people born overseas and those with bachelor degrees has widened, while Hinchinbrook has seen its share of children and unpaid carers grow compared to Mundingburra. Despite these shifts, the areas remain very similar in their typical weekly incomes and the number of people per home. Both areas also sit near the national figure for the share of people needing help with daily activities.
