Horse Camp Moolboolaman

Moolboolaman and Horse Camp are two nearby rural areas in Queensland with very similar population sizes. The most striking differences are in their demographics and housing; Horse Camp has a much older First Nations population, with a typical age of 46 compared to 34 in Moolboolaman. Horse Camp also has a higher share of residents aged 65 and over (31.7% compared to 25.7% in Moolboolaman) and more people living alone. In contrast, Moolboolaman has a higher proportion of homes with three or more bedrooms (58.1% compared to 48.0% in Horse Camp) and more one-parent families.
