Dingo Goowarra

Dingo and Goowarra are two nearby Queensland areas with very different populations. Dingo is a younger place where 23.1% of people are children, and 73.8% of adults are working or looking for work. In contrast, Goowarra is sparsely populated and much older; the typical resident is 53 and a quarter of the population are seniors. This age difference is reflected in the health and care needs of the two areas, with far more people in Goowarra needing help with daily activities (18.5%) and providing unpaid care (38.5%).

Both areas sit near the national figure for typical household income, which is around $1,400 a week. Despite this similarity, they differ in other ways, such as typical family income, which is far higher in Goowarra at $3,249. While Dingo is mostly car-dependent, it is more walkable than Goowarra, with more homes within a 15-minute walk of schools and groceries. These two areas have remained largely similar in their levels of education, with about 31% of residents in both having completed Year 12.
