About Coomoo

Coomoo is a rural locality in Queensland's Central Highlands Region, situated approximately 138 kilometres southwest of Rockhampton and 701 kilometres north-northwest of Brisbane. Covering around 524 square kilometres of grazing country, Coomoo had a population of just 24 people at the 2021 census, reflecting its character as a sparsely settled pastoral locality. It falls within the Flynn federal division and the Gregory state electorate. The area is characterised by open eucalyptus woodland and grazing land typical of central Queensland.

Coomoo is deep agricultural country, where beef cattle grazing dominates the landscape and the rural community is closely connected to the land. The nearest town of significance is Duaringa (27 km north), which offers basic services, while Rockhampton provides the full range of regional facilities approximately 138 kilometres to the east. Life in Coomoo is self-reliant and quiet, attracting those involved in the pastoral industry or seeking a remote rural lifestyle. The locality exemplifies the vast, peaceful grazing country of inland Queensland.
