Coomrith Meandarra

Meandarra and Coomrith are two nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Meandarra is the larger of the two, and its residents are far older, with a typical age of 52 compared to 40 in Coomrith. This age gap is reflected in health and family life; people with long-term health conditions are far more common in Meandarra (31.6%), while children under 15 are far more common in Coomrith (26.9%). Meandarra is also more walkable, with a score of 3.4 (mostly car-dependent) and 61.9% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school or groceries, whereas Coomrith is car-dependent with no such amenities nearby.

Both areas are similarly remote, with no public transport stops or departures and no residents using other languages at home. They also share a similar landscape, with the same average terrain slope.
