Marmadua Weranga

Weranga and Marmadua are both sparsely populated areas in Queensland. There are stark differences in typical incomes, with Marmadua's typical household income at $1,687 per week, far higher than the $814 seen in Weranga. This gap extends to personal income, which is far higher in Marmadua at $1,024 compared to $411 in Weranga. Weranga also has a larger First Nations population, with 38 people, and the typical First Nations resident there is far older at 20 compared to just 2 in Marmadua.

These two areas have both stayed car-dependent over time, as neither has any walkable amenities or public transport. This shared reliance on cars remains constant while other gaps shift. For example, the difference in typical personal income between the two has widened since 2011. In both places, the typical resident is older than the national figure, with Weranga's typical age at 49 and Marmadua's at 53.
