Migration & Movement in Bribie Island

How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.

A massive gap exists between Bribie Island and the rest of the country in where its people come from. While nearly half of the population has moved house recently, very few new residents are arriving from overseas. This suggests the area is primarily attracting people from within Australia rather than from abroad.
