Urban Centre comparison ≈ 38 km apart · Cambooya profile · Allora profile

Cambooya Allora

Cambooya and Allora (L) are two nearby Queensland areas with very different populations. Cambooya is a young place where the typical resident is 29, and children under 15 make up 26.5% of the population. In contrast, residents in Allora (L) are far older, with a typical age of 53 and 34.6% of people aged 65 and over. This age gap helps explain other differences; Cambooya has a much higher share of people working or looking for work (67.1% vs 43.1%) and more people in de facto relationships, while Allora (L) is very walkable and has many more homes owned outright (44.7% compared to 16.4%).

Since 2011, the two areas have grown further apart in several ways, including an increasing gap in typical ages and the number of people who finished Year 12. However, they still share some traits, such as having a similar proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents and a nearly identical share of people providing unpaid care. Both areas also have similar rates of unemployment and a high number of separate houses.
