Cameby Goombi

Goombi and Cameby are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. Goombi is much younger, with a typical resident aged 35 and 32.1% of people being children under 15. This helps explain why homes are larger, with a typical 3.7 people per home, and why 44.1% of people care for children unpaid. In contrast, residents are far older in Cameby, where the typical age is 53 and 28.3% are aged 65 and over. Goombi also has a higher share of university degrees (26.5%) and a much higher typical weekly household income of $3,083 compared to $1,625 in Cameby.

Everyday life in both areas is very similar in that they are both car-dependent and have no public transport stops or nearby shops.

While Goombi has more people working from home and Cameby has a higher share of full-time employment, both remain small, rural locations.
