Elimbah Moodlu
Elimbah and Moodlu are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very different profiles. Elimbah is a larger place with a younger population and more children, and it has a much higher typical household income of $2,183 per week compared to $1,402 in Moodlu. This is consistent with Elimbah having far more high-earning households and a higher share of adults working or looking for work. In contrast, Moodlu has a noticeably older population, with a far higher share of people aged 65 and over (24.9%) and more people living alone (24.7%).
Both areas are almost identical in their unemployment rates, which are both 4.7%. They are also both car-dependent and take about the same time to drive to the city. While Elimbah has more public transport options and more people who have moved recently, Moodlu has a higher share of homes owned outright and more residents born overseas. The gap in typical household income is a significant divide between these two neighbours.
