  • Long-Term Population Growth in Regional Queensland
    LONG-TERM POPULATION GROWTH IN REGIONAL QUEENSLAND March 2015 LONG-TERM POPULATION GROWTH IN REGIONAL QUEENSLAND 1.0 INTRODUCTION Over a period of time, major changes have been taking place in the distribution of population in regional Queensland outside of the south-east corner of the State. This paper sets out: o This changing pattern and the leading role of Cairns and the Cairns region in this changing pattern; o Why this consistent pattern of change has been happening over a period of time; and o On a continuation of these long-term trends, what regional population in Queensland would look like by 2050. This paper has been prepared by Cummings Economics for the Cairns Regional Council. W S Cummings B Econ 38 Grafton St (PO Box 2148) Cairns Q 4870 Phones 07 4031 2888 / 0418 871 011 Email [email protected] Website www.cummings.net.au CUMMINGS ECONOMICS ABN: 99 734 489 175 Ref: J2806 March 2015 Page /33 2 LONG-TERM POPULATION GROWTH IN REGIONAL QUEENSLAND 2.0 THE QUEENSLAND REGIONS Queensland outside of the south-east corner of the State covers a large area. Realities of distances lead to the area being served by a series of regional capitals with distinct commercial servicing regions. Map 1 shows these regional capitals and the commercial regions they serve. In the case of Cairns, Townsville, Mackay and Toowoomba, the regional capitals and their commercial servicing areas are fairly clear. Although Rockhampton is the regional capital of the Fitzroy and Central West region, unlike Cairns, Townsville and Mackay, the region’s port is not located at the city, but 100km away at Gladstone.

The solar panels, wind turbines and rainwater tanks that power and quench this island are hidden from view. And the beach shacks are illusory, for though Pumpkin Island has been used by families and fishermen since 1964, it has been recently reimagined by managers Wayne and Laureth Rumble as a stylish, eco- conscious island escape. The couple has incorporated all the elements of a casual beach holiday – troughs in which to rinse your sandy feet, barbecues on which to grill freshly caught fish and shucking knives for easy dislodgement of oysters from the nearby rocks – without sacrificing any modern comforts. Pumpkin Island’s seven self-catering cottages and bungalows (accommodating up to six people) are distinguished from one another by unique decorative touches: candy-striped deckchairs slung from hooks on a distressed weatherboard wall; linen bedclothes in this cottage, waffle-weave in that; mint-green accents here, blue over there.
