Marburg Thagoona

Thagoona and Marburg are neighbouring Queensland areas with different living patterns. Thagoona has a much higher share of high-income households, with 27.5% earning $3,000 or more a week compared to 15.2% in Marburg. Large homes are very common in Thagoona, where 97.5% of houses have three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Marburg is more walkable (somewhat walkable) and has far more local amenities within a 15-minute walk, such as health services and groceries, which are entirely absent in Thagoona (car-dependent).

Both areas share very similar levels of personal income and have almost no recent overseas arrivals. They also have nearly identical rates of volunteering and very low numbers of people who speak a language other than English at home. While they share these traits, some gaps have shifted since 2011. For example, Marburg now has a far higher share of people living alone and more people who have moved in the last five years, while the income gap between the two areas has widened.
