Cambroon Elaman Creek

Cambroon and Elaman Creek are two sparsely populated areas in Queensland. Cambroon has a younger feel, with children under 15 making up 20.9% of the population, compared to just 8.7% in Elaman Creek. This difference is consistent with a higher share of one-parent families in Cambroon (14.6%) and a lower typical age of 47, while residents in Elaman Creek are far older, with a typical age of 55. Income also varies, as the typical weekly personal income is well higher in Elaman Creek at $767, compared to $556 in Cambroon.

The gap in home ownership has widened over time, with homes owned outright far higher in Elaman Creek (54.5%) than in Cambroon (42.6%). Despite this, the two areas share many similarities; they have almost identical rates of people born overseas and adults working or looking for work. Both areas are very car-dependent, as neither has any public transport stops or homes within a 15-minute walk of a school.
