Rosewood Harrisville

Rosewood and Harrisville (L) are nearby Queensland areas with very different residential profiles. Rosewood is much more mobile and transient, with 46.9% of people moving in the last five years and a high rental rate of 41.7%. It also has a larger share of one-parent families (26.1%) and people living alone (28.6%). In contrast, Harrisville (L) is more stable and affluent, with a typical weekly household income of $1,550 compared to $1,231 in Rosewood, and a higher proportion of homeowners who own their homes outright (34.5%).

The gap in unpaid housework has widened since 2011, with Harrisville (L) now seeing 28.3% of people doing 15 or more hours a week. Despite these shifts, the two areas share a typical resident age of 39 and very similar rates of overseas birth. They also both have a high proportion of detached houses, though Harrisville (L) is more car-dependent, as Rosewood has far more homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, and public transport.
