Doomadgee Gregory

Doomadgee and Gregory (Qld) are two very different Queensland areas. Doomadgee has a much larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 89.3%, compared to 28.7% in Gregory (Qld). It is also far younger, with a typical resident aged 25 and 31.4% of the population being children under 15. In contrast, the typical person in Gregory (Qld) is 39, and typical weekly incomes are far higher there at $675, compared to $354 in Doomadgee.

Both areas are mostly car-dependent, and very few people in either place use another language at home. However, some of the gaps between them are widening. This is most visible in the housing market, where the difference in renting has grown to a 72 point gap, with 90.9% of Doomadgee households renting compared to just 18.8% in Gregory (Qld).
