Walloon Willowbank

Walloon and Willowbank are neighbouring areas in Ipswich with very different profiles. Walloon is a younger area, where the typical resident is 33, and it attracts many newcomers with 51.3% of people moving in during the last five years. It is more walkable, with a score of 4.0 (mostly car-dependent), and is dominated by large homes, as 90.4% have three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Willowbank is older, with a typical age of 41, and is more car-dependent with a walkability score of 1.6.

The gap in housing style has widened since 2011, with the share of homes with three or more bedrooms now 18.2% higher in Walloon. Despite this, the two areas share several traits; they have similar proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents and almost identical rates of volunteering at 10%. They also see very similar levels of public transport use for commuting and have nearly the same typical monthly home-loan payments.
