Maryborough Bauple Forest

Maryborough (Qld) and Bauple Forest (L) are two nearby areas in Queensland with very different profiles. Maryborough (Qld) is a larger hub where 30.6% of households rent and homes are more likely to have three or more bedrooms (68.7%). It is also far more walkable (somewhat walkable) with a high number of shops, parks, and schools within a 15-minute walk. In contrast, Bauple Forest (L) is a sparsely populated, car-dependent area where most people own their homes outright (58.8%) and the population is much older, with a typical age of 61.

The gap in the typical age of residents has widened since 2011, as Bauple Forest (L) has become significantly older. Despite this, the two areas share some similarities; for example, the proportion of adults with a bachelor degree or higher is almost identical at around 8%. Both areas also have a very low share of people who speak little or no English, and similar rates of people providing unpaid care.
