Community Participation in Nundah
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Far fewer people in Nundah provide unpaid care compared to other areas, with only 7.5% of residents doing so. This suggests a community where few people have heavy caregiving responsibilities. While most areas see steady levels of engagement, volunteer rates here have dropped significantly over the last decade.
Participation
Volunteering for organisations and groups.
Volunteering has fallen by 5.1 percentage points since 2011 to reach 13.0%. This is a little below the Queensland and Australian figures of 14.1%, and is lower than most similar areas.
Unpaid care & work
Caring for others and unpaid domestic work.
Unpaid work is much less common here than elsewhere; only 14.2% of people spend 15 or more hours a week on housework. This trend is consistent with the fact that the proportion of people caring for children unpaid is well below the national figure at 19.4%.
