Cambroon Coolabine

Cambroon and Coolabine are two nearby rural areas in Queensland with very different household patterns. Cambroon has more children and larger homes, with 72.1% of houses having three or more bedrooms and 20.9% of the population under 15. In contrast, Coolabine is older and more fragmented, with a much higher share of people living alone (38.9%) and a much higher rental rate (38.9%). Work habits also differ, as 27.3% of people in Coolabine work from home, which is far higher than the 10.1% in Cambroon.

Both areas are almost identical in their lack of public transport, as no one in either place commutes by bus or train and every home requires a motor vehicle. They also share very similar typical family incomes, which sit around $1,300 a week. While they are alike in these basic needs, the two areas have diverged in their demographics, with residents in Coolabine becoming noticeably older than those in Cambroon.
