Cannonvale Woodwark

Cannonvale and Woodwark are neighbouring areas in the Whitsunday region with very different layouts. Cannonvale is much more urban, where 45% of homes are rented and 27.9% of dwellings are flats or apartments. It is a transient hub, with 53.8% of people moving there in the last five years and 14.2% arriving from overseas. In contrast, Woodwark is dominated by separate houses (96.1%) and homeowners, with only 11.6% of households renting. The two areas also differ in walkability; Cannonvale is mostly car-dependent but has many more amenities within reach, while Woodwark is car-dependent with almost no shops or schools in walking distance.

Both areas share a similar percentage of children under 15 and have nearly identical typical weekly personal incomes of around $870 to $880. This common financial standing exists even though Woodwark has a much higher typical First Nations household income of $3,750 compared to $1,906 in Cannonvale. While they share these basics, the gap in their demographics is clear, with residents in Woodwark being noticeably older, by a typical age of 7 years.
