McCutcheon is a rural locality in the Cassowary Coast Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2021 census, McCutcheon had a population of 34 people.[1]
Liverpool Creek forms the northern boundary of the locality. Stephensons Road forms part of the eastern boundary of the locality, while Spanos Road forms part of the south-western boundary. The Bruce Highway crosses Liverpool Creek at the north-western corner of the locality but does not enter the locality.[3][4]
The main land use is crop growing (predominantly sugarcane) with some grazing on native vegetation.[5] There are cane tramways to transport the harvested sugarcane to the local sugar mill.[4]
