Consuelo vs Orion

Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 52 km apart · Consuelo profile · Orion profile

Consuelo Orion

Orion and Consuelo are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. They differ sharply in age and wealth; Orion is much younger, with a typical resident aged 32 and 31% of people being children under 15. In contrast, Consuelo's typical resident is 52, and no children under 15 live there. This age gap is reflected in the home life, with far more people caring for children unpaid in Orion (57.6%) than in Consuelo (13.8%). Consuelo is also wealthier, with a typical weekly family income of $6,500 compared to $1,583 in Orion.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining very small and car-dependent. They share some common ground, such as having almost identical proportions of people aged 65 and over and no residents who use public transport to get to work. While Consuelo has more people born overseas (8.6% versus 0% in Orion) and a higher share of university degrees, both areas sit well below the national figure for people who speak little or no English.
