Beaudesert Flagstone

Beaudesert and Flagstone are nearby Queensland areas with similar population sizes, but they differ sharply in age and wealth. Beaudesert is much older, with a typical resident aged 41 compared to 31 in Flagstone, and it has a far higher share of people aged 65 and over (22.7% versus 7.8%). Flagstone is wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $2,096, which is far higher than the $1,118 seen in Beaudesert. This wealth gap is consistent with the higher share of adults in Flagstone who are working or looking for work (68.2% compared to 48.9% in Beaudesert).

Both areas are quite similar when it comes to how people get around and their daily routines, as both have very low public transport use and similar levels of unpaid housework. However, many other gaps have widened since 2011. This includes a growing divide in housing, with Beaudesert having far more renters and Flagstone having a much higher share of separate houses. Beaudesert remains much more walkable, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services.
