Winton Aramac

Winton and Aramac are two small Queensland towns located about 235 km apart. Winton has a larger population and generally higher costs, with typical weekly rents $57 higher and typical monthly home loan payments $449 higher than in Aramac. There are also notable differences in home ownership and family life; homes are far more likely to be owned outright in Aramac, where 54.5% of residents own their home without a mortgage. Aramac also has a much higher share of people doing 15 or more hours of unpaid housework (25.5% compared to 13.9% in Winton) and a higher proportion of one-parent families.

Everyday life shares many similarities in both places, such as a typical resident age of 45 and almost no one using public transport to get to work. Both areas also have very few people who speak a language other than English at home. While the two towns have remained similar in these ways, some gaps are shifting. For example, the difference in typical family income has widened since 2011, and the gap in the number of people aged 65 and over has narrowed.
