Bulloo Downs is a rural locality in the Shire of Bulloo, Queensland, Australia.[2] It is on the Queensland border with New South Wales.[3] In the 2021 census, Bulloo Downs had "no people or a very low population".[1]
On 17 April 2020 the Queensland Government reorganised the nine localities in the Shire, resulting in six localities. It included Bulloo Downs losing a portion of its western land to the locality of Cameron Corner while gaining a small portion from the south of the former Bullawarra (the rest being incorporated into Thargomindah).[4][5][6] The area of Bulloo Downs decreased from 12,814.6 square kilometres (4,947.7 sq mi) to 11,252.1 square kilometres (4,344.5 sq mi).[3]
