Beechboro Eden Hill

Beechboro and Eden Hill are neighbouring suburbs with very different levels of local access. Beechboro is far more walkable, with 73.5% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 45.5% near health services, compared to just 13.8% and 1.7% in Eden Hill. Beechboro is also more diverse, with 29.6% of people using another language at home and 37.2% born overseas, figures that are well higher than in Eden Hill. In contrast, Eden Hill has a more qualified workforce, with 19.7% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher and a larger share of households earning $3,000 or more a week.

These two areas share a very similar population profile, including the same typical resident age of 38 and almost identical rates of home ownership and single-parent families. While they are alike in these basics, the gap in accessibility is stark; Beechboro has far more public transport stops and a much higher share of homes in a 15-minute-city walkshed. This difference in local convenience remains a defining contrast between the two neighbours.
