Glenden is a mining town and rural locality in the Isaac Region, Queensland, Australia.[2][3]
In the 2021 census, the locality of Glenden had a population of 477 people.[1] The population subsequently declined rapidly, when the local mine changed its roster to a seven-days-on, seven-days-off roster, and is expected to continue to do so. Many residents are relocating to towns like Proserpine that offer a more stable environment.[4]
