Cobraball Greenlake

Cobraball and Greenlake are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. Cobraball is larger in size and population, with residents who are far more likely to be Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. The two areas differ most in their typical incomes and ages; the typical resident in Greenlake is far older at 62 compared to 49 in Cobraball. Income is also well higher in Greenlake, where the typical family earns $2,250 a week compared to $1,449 in Cobraball.

Both areas have remained very similar in their layout and lack of infrastructure since 2011. They are both entirely car-dependent, with no public transport or amenities within walking distance. This shared lack of services is consistent across both places, and they both remain far from the national figures for walkability.
