Kalumburu vs Prince Regent River

Kalumburu and Prince Regent River are both remote parts of Western Australia, but they differ greatly in size and population. Kalumburu has a much larger population of 388 people, including 343 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents, and a very young typical age of 27. In contrast, Prince Regent River is sparsely populated with only 4 residents, and the typical person there is far older at 50. Kalumburu also has more infrastructure, including a school and more street intersections per square kilometre.

Life in both places is very remote, and neither area has any public transport routes or stops. This shared isolation is reflected in the lack of transport options across both locations. While Kalumburu has more street connectivity, Prince Regent River has a far higher number of walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, though these are entirely parks.
