Beelbee Kumbarilla

Kumbarilla and Beelbee are two rural Queensland areas with very different income levels. Beelbee is sparsely populated with just 18 people, while Kumbarilla has 223 residents. The typical weekly household income in Beelbee is far higher at $2,250, compared to $1,057 in Kumbarilla. Beelbee also has well higher household density, with 3.2 people per home compared to 2.4 in Kumbarilla. In contrast, Kumbarilla has a larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population with 30 people, while Beelbee has none.

Both areas are entirely car-dependent, as neither has any public transport or amenities within a 15-minute walk. This lack of infrastructure is a shared reality for residents in both places. While the typical age is similar—46 in Kumbarilla and 47 in Beelbee—the financial gap between them remains stark, with Beelbee's typical family income sitting far above the national figure while Kumbarilla's is far below.
