Prince Of Wales Umagico

Umagico and Prince Of Wales are two nearby Queensland areas with very different population profiles. Umagico is a young place where children under 15 make up 41.4% of residents and the typical age is only 20. In contrast, Prince Of Wales is much older, with a typical age of 60 and 33.9% of people aged 65 and over. These differences extend to their homes; 92.3% of households in Umagico are rented, while 69% of homes in Prince Of Wales are owned outright.

While their ages vary, the typical weekly family income is almost identical in both areas, at around $890 to $899. The two places are also alike in their lack of local infrastructure, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of public transport, schools, or groceries. These shared challenges exist alongside a widening gap in their home ownership patterns, as Umagico remains dominated by renters while Prince Of Wales is largely made up of homeowners.
