Home Creek is a former rural locality in the Barcaldine Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2016 census, Home Creek had a population of 24 people.[1]
On 22 November 2019 the Queensland Government decided to amalgamate the localities in the Barcaldine Region, resulting in five expanded localities based on the larger towns: Alpha, Aramac, Barcaldine, Jericho and Muttaburra. Home Creek was incorporated into Barcaldine.[3][4][5]
Geography
The Landsborough Highway passes through the locality from north (Patrick) to south (Blackall).[6]
The watercourse Home Creek (from which the locality presumably takes its name) rises in Evora to the south-east and then flows through the locality of Home Creek from the south-east to the west (Barcaldine Downs) where it becomes a tributary to the Alice River.[6]
The principal land use is grazing on native vegetation.[6]
Education
There are no schools in Home Creek. The nearest primary and secondary schools are in Barcaldine and Blackall.[6]
