Bentley Park Edmonton

Edmonton and Bentley Park are neighbouring areas in Cairns with different levels of accessibility. Edmonton is much more walkable, with 56% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 44.1% within reach of health services. It also has far more businesses, with 647 compared to 383 in Bentley Park. In contrast, Bentley Park has far larger schools, with a typical size of 1,156 students compared to 437 in Edmonton, and a higher share of residents who have completed Year 12.

These two areas have tracked in different directions since 2011. While the gap in Year 12 completion has widened, the difference in the share of separate houses and large homes with three or more bedrooms has narrowed. Despite these shifts, the two areas remain very similar in some ways. They have almost identical typical weekly personal incomes, around $800, and both have a similar proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents at around 15%.
