Clairview Koumala

Clairview and Koumala are two rural Queensland areas with very different populations. Clairview is much older, with a typical resident aged 61 and 37.7% of people aged 65 and over. In contrast, Koumala is younger, with a typical age of 45 and far more children under 15 (20.9% compared to just 2.4% in Clairview). This age gap is reflected in the homes; Koumala has many more large family houses, while Clairview has more people living alone and a higher share of homes owned outright (67.6%). There is also a notable income gap, with the typical weekly household income in Koumala being far higher at $1,833, compared to $1,015 in Clairview.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining car-dependent with no public transport and very similar proportions of First Nations people. They share a similar landscape with almost identical terrain slopes. While Clairview has more people with long-term health conditions, both areas sit well below the national figure for Year 12 completion. Both are fundamentally reliant on cars for daily needs, though Koumala has slightly more access to shops and schools within walking distance.
