Miller Stretton

Stretton and Miller are nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Stretton is far more multicultural, with 53.0% of people born overseas and 55.5% using another language at home, compared to 23.9% and 15.4% in Miller. Housing also differs; 94.0% of Stretton homes have three or more bedrooms and 81.4% are separate houses, while Miller has far more flats and smaller homes. Miller stands out for its higher typical incomes, with a typical weekly personal income of $1,084 compared to $719 in Stretton, and a larger share of residents with bachelor degrees (47.3% versus 34.2%).

Everyday life shares some common ground, as both areas have nearly identical typical weekly rents around $400 and almost all homes are within a 15-minute walk of a park. However, they are drifting apart in other ways. The gap in cultural diversity has widened since 2011, and Miller has seen its lead in high earners and people working from home grow over the same period.
