Coominya Minden Village

Minden Village and Coominya are two nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Minden Village is a younger community where the typical resident is 35, and 24.7% of people are children under 15. It is also wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $1,930 and a higher share of adults working or looking for work. In contrast, Coominya is far older, with a typical age of 50 and 23.4% of people aged 65 and over. It has a lower typical household income of $1,138 and a higher share of people with long-term health conditions.

Both areas are identical in that every single home is a separate house. They also share very similar proportions of people who have served in the Defence Force and those who use another language at home. However, their paths have diverged since 2011, as the gaps in typical age, family income, and home ownership have all widened. While Coominya is mostly car-dependent, it has some walkable amenities and parks, whereas Minden Village is completely car-dependent.
