Collie Eaton - Pelican Point

Eaton - Pelican Point and Collie are two Western Australian areas with very different layouts and levels of advantage. Eaton - Pelican Point is more developed and accessible, with a walkability score of 5.1 (somewhat walkable) and 93.9% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport. In contrast, Collie is mostly car-dependent (score 3.0), with only 15.9% of homes near public transport. Eaton - Pelican Point also has a higher share of adults working or looking for work (62.1% compared to 51.2% in Collie) and a higher proportion of residents who finished Year 12 (42.5% versus 30.1%).

These two areas share a very similar proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents, at around 4% each. They also have nearly identical numbers of school enrolments and similar rates of renting. However, some gaps are widening; for example, the difference in Year 12 completion and the share of people born overseas has increased since 2011.
