Marian vs Nebo

Urban Centre comparison ≈ 66 km apart · Marian profile · Nebo profile

Marian Nebo

Marian and Nebo (L) are two Queensland areas about 66km apart with very different household profiles. Marian is a larger community where 28.3% of people are children and 39% of adults provide unpaid childcare, consistent with a high share of four-bedroom homes. In contrast, Nebo (L) has a much higher proportion of renters (54.9%) and people living alone (34.7%). Marian also has a more qualified workforce, with 48.6% of residents completing Year 12 compared to 23.9% in Nebo (L), and a typical weekly household income that is $494 higher.

Both areas are almost identical in their share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, which sits around 5%. They also share similar unemployment rates and a nearly universal proximity to parks. However, the gaps between them have shifted over time; since 2011, the difference in typical household income has widened significantly and the age gap has flipped, with residents now noticeably older in Nebo (L).
