State Electorate comparison ≈ 11 km apart · Cooper profile · Everton profile

Cooper Everton

Everton and Cooper are nearby Queensland areas with similar population sizes, but they differ in their infrastructure and workforce. Cooper is far more walkable, with 88% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries compared to 77% in Everton. Cooper also has a much more highly qualified workforce, with 49.7% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, far higher than the 30.8% in Everton. In contrast, Everton has larger families and homes, with 85.8% of dwellings having three or more bedrooms, compared to 74.1% in Cooper.

Both areas are very alike when it comes to the typical size of their households and the number of people per bedroom. They also share similar rent prices and a similar proportion of people who own their homes outright. However, the gap in educational attainment has grown significantly since 2011, and Cooper's lead in high weekly earnings has also widened over the same period.
