Cue Karalundi

Cue and Karalundi are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia with very different resident profiles. Cue is an older community where the typical resident is 63 and over half the population is aged 65 or more. In contrast, Karalundi is much younger, with a typical age of 34 and 30.8% of people under 15. These demographic splits are reflected in their households; Cue has far more couples without children, while Karalundi has far more couples with children and a much higher share of people caring for children unpaid (35.7%).

While they differ in age and family life, both areas have similar proportions of adults with a bachelor degree or higher and virtually no one who speaks little or no English. The gap in typical personal income is quite large, with Karalundi's typical weekly income being $1,028 compared to $517 in Cue. However, this divide in earning power is consistent with the different workforce structures, as Karalundi has a far higher share of adults working or looking for work.
