Eurong Poona

Eurong and Poona are two different Queensland locations situated about 31 km apart. Eurong is sparsely populated with only 11 residents, while Poona is larger with 576 people. There are stark financial differences between them: typical weekly family income in Eurong is $2,750, which is far higher than the $859 seen in Poona. This gap is reflected in housing costs, where typical monthly home loan payments in Eurong are $3,400, far higher than the $975 in Poona. Residents in Poona are also far older, with a typical age of 66 compared to 48 in Eurong.

Both areas are very similar in that they lack immediate access to essential services. Neither has any homes within a 15-minute walk of a school, health services, or public transport. This shared isolation is consistent with their walkability scores, as both are car-dependent, though Eurong is mostly car-dependent and slightly more walkable. While Eurong has a higher share of homes within walking distance of groceries, both areas remain remote relative to the national figure for service access.
