Boodua Yalangur

Boodua and Yalangur are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland, but they have very different profiles. Boodua is a young area where the typical resident is 29, and with 28.4% of the population being children, 34.7% of people are unpaid carers for children. It is also wealthier, with a typical household income of $2,624 per week. In contrast, Yalangur is much older, with a typical age of 57 and a higher share of seniors at 25.5%. Typical incomes are much lower there, with households earning $1,125 a week.

Everyday life in both places is very similar in that every home is a separate house and all are car-dependent, as no one lives within walking distance of public transport, shops or schools. Both areas are also entirely English-speaking. While they share these patterns, their work habits differ; 51.9% of people in Yalangur work from home, which is far higher than the 7.8% in Boodua.
