In this assignment I choose Level 1 statistical area 3112005 and 3112704 as my object. This two areas are both located in Brisbane and about 6km from Brisbane CBD. SA1 3112005 belongs to suburb Alderley where SA1 3112704 belongs to suburb Newmarket. Although they are located in different suburbs, they are very close to each other, they are separated by Alderley Park. SA1 3112005 locates at the north of Alderley Park and SA1 3112704 is at the southeast side of Alderley Park. Consider these two SA1s are so close to each other and share the same park, I believe they will have similar housing characteristic and similar demographic pattern even they are in two different suburbs.

Surprisingly, the demographic characteristic in SA1 3112005 and 3112704 are completely different from what I expect. SA1 3112005 is about twice size of 3112704 but with less people living in the area, 420 compare to 577, i.e. much lower population density and better environment. Consider that, people live in 3112005 is likely to be richer than 3112704.
Area 3112005 have lower %born overseas and higher %English only at home, which means there are more immigrations in area 3112704.
The %aged under 15 and %married in area 3112005 is more than doubled compared to 3112704, that indicate people live in area 3112005 are mostly family with children, where in area 3112704 most are singles. People live in 3112005 should be older, that is evidenced by median age is 35 in 3112005 compared to 31 in 3112704, also statistic shows over 45% of the population in 3112704 aged between 20 and 34. The unemployment rate is likely be higher for young people, and it is true in this case. The unemployment rate in 3112705 is much higher than in 3112005, even higher than QLD average.
Consider the population in 3112005 is more mature, they are more likely to become leaders in organization, young people is not likely become a manager. The %manager is less than 7% in area 3112704 compared to 19.6% in area 3112005 confirm that. The %professionals in both areas are over 30% which is much higher compare to QLD average standard 18.9% which shows person live in both areas are more educated than the average. That can also be evidenced by the low %labourers rate.
In conclusion, compare two SA1, people in both areas are more educated than average, however in area 3112005, people are older and at a higher level of organization, most population are family with children and they are likely to be richer compared to 3112704. People live in 3112704 are most single, younger and there are more immigrations.

The income comparison in two SA1 correspond to the demographic characteristic in each area. Median income in area 3112005 is much higher compared to 3112704 and QLD average, as my prediction before. People live in 3112005 are more mature and more than half of them are manager or professional, which are well paid jobs. Compare to 3112005, people are younger in 3112704 and not that experienced therefore they earn much less, their income is still better than QLD average as they are more educated than average.
In conclusion, area 3112005 is much richer compare to area 3112704, evidenced by higher median income $1020 compare to $697 and $2200 compare to $1287.there are much less poor people in
