Inala Stretton

Inala and Stretton are two nearby Brisbane areas with very different profiles. Stretton has a much higher proportion of people born overseas (53.0% compared to 41.6% in Inala) and a higher share of residents who use a language other than English at home (55.5% versus 41.0%). Educational and financial gaps are also wide; in Stretton, 34.2% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, while in Inala the figure is 18.8%. This is consistent with a higher share of households in Stretton earning $3,000 or more a week (21.8% against 14.4% in Inala).

Both areas are very similar in the size of their households and the age of their residents, with about 20% of the population being children under 15. They also share almost identical walkability scores and high access to parks. However, some gaps have grown since 2011, such as the difference in university qualifications and the share of people using another language at home, which has widened significantly.
