Woodford Beerburrum

Woodford and Beerburrum (L) are nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Beerburrum (L) is a much younger place, where 22.8% of people are children under 15, compared to just 10.6% in Woodford. It is also a hub of activity, with a far higher share of adults working or looking for work (63.6% versus 30.1% in Woodford) and more people who have moved there in the last five years (41.0% against 25.5% in Woodford). While Woodford has more homes owned outright (36.8% compared to 21.4%), Beerburrum (L) is far more walkable, with 99.6% of homes within a short walk of groceries.

Many of the gaps between these two areas have widened since 2011. The difference in the number of children and the proportion of people working has grown significantly over the last decade. They do still share some common ground, such as similar rates of people in de facto relationships and similar numbers of residents who have served in the Defence Force.
