Inverlaw Kumbia

Kumbia and Inverlaw are two small neighbours in Queensland with very different profiles. Kumbia is an older area where 25.6% of residents are aged 65 and over, compared to 15.3% in Inverlaw. This older age profile is consistent with a higher number of people living alone (39.2% in Kumbia versus 25.3% in Inverlaw) and more renters. Kumbia is also more walkable, with a score of 3.6 (mostly car-dependent), while Inverlaw is car-dependent (0.0). In contrast, Inverlaw has a younger feel with 23.2% of people under 15, a higher share of people caring for children unpaid (33.3%), and a typical household income that is far higher at $1,531, compared to $919 in Kumbia.

Everyday life is similar in both places in many ways. Both have no people who speak only English as a second language and identical unemployment rates of 0.0%. They also share a similar proportion of people who do not have a religion, sitting around 35%. This shared rural character is further reflected in the fact that no one in either area uses public transport to get to work and every home has a motor vehicle.
