Higher typical incomes for First Nations residents set Jondaryan apart from many similar areas. This large, rural part of the Toowoomba region is a sparsely populated landscape where most people rely on cars to get around. The community is marked by a very young First Nations population and a lack of nearby shops or services. It remains a predominantly non-residential expanse of land with a small, scattered population.
