Mulambin Keppel Sands

Mulambin and Keppel Sands (L) are nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Mulambin is a younger, more affluent place where children under 15 make up 21.6% of the population and the typical weekly household income is $1,931. In contrast, Keppel Sands (L) is much older; the typical resident is 59 and those aged 65 and over make up 39.6% of the population. While Mulambin has more larger homes and a higher share of people working or looking for work, Keppel Sands (L) is somewhat walkable with more amenities like groceries and schools within a 15-minute walk.

The gap in typical resident ages has widened since 2011, growing from 14 to 20 years. Despite this, the two areas share some similarities, such as having nearly identical shares of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and one-parent families. They also both have very low rates of people who speak little or no English, and neither area has any homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport or a 15-minute walk of health services.
