Bukali Splinter Creek

Bukali and Splinter Creek are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. They differ mainly in age and income; Bukali has a far higher share of people aged 65 and over (24.6% compared to 12.5%) and a much lower typical weekly household income of $1,125, while Splinter Creek's is $2,124. Splinter Creek is more likely to have children, with 21.9% under age 15 compared to just 8.8% in Bukali. This is consistent with a much higher share of people in Splinter Creek caring for children unpaid (37.5% versus 14.0%).
