History

In the 2016 census, Camoola had a population of 29 people. [1]

In January 2019, it was decided to reduce the number of localities within Longreach Region by amalgamating the localities to the north and west of the town of Longreach into the locality of Longreach. The localities amalgamated were: Camoola, Chorregon, Ernestina, Maneroo, Morella, Tocal, and Vergemont. [3] As a consequence of this amalgamation, the Longreach Region has only three localities: Longreach, Ilfracombe and Isisford. [4]
