Brooloo Cambroon

Brooloo and Cambroon are two nearby Queensland areas with distinct profiles. Residents are noticeably older in Brooloo, where the typical age is 52, while the typical resident in Cambroon is 47. There are significant differences between their First Nations populations; First Nations residents in Brooloo are far older, with a typical age of 57, compared to just 14 in Cambroon. Income also varies widely for this group, with the typical household income in Cambroon being far higher at $2,750, compared to $1,042 in Brooloo.

These two areas share a very similar daily reality, with almost identical typical weekly personal incomes and a lack of public transport. Both are almost entirely car-dependent and have no homes within a 10-minute walk of a transport stop. They also have similar proportions of people in de facto relationships and a nearly identical share of people who served in the Defence Force. This shared experience is reflected in their housing, as both areas consist almost entirely of separate houses.
