Ballengarra Cairncross

Ballengarra and Cairncross are both sparsely populated areas. Ballengarra has a small population of 97 people, while Cairncross is effectively non-residential with no recorded population. The main difference between them is the land, as Cairncross has a much steeper mean terrain slope at 31.7% compared to 10.0% in Ballengarra.

Both areas are completely car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of shops, parks, schools, or health services. This lack of local amenities is a shared trait, though some gaps in infrastructure have shifted since 2011, such as the difference in street connectivity which is now far higher in Cairncross.
