Background statistics

- Wide Bay Burnett cancer statistics show that there are 1931 new cases of cancer diagnosed in the region per year, with 1 in 2.2 people in the community likely to receive a cancer diagnosis by age 80.3
- In the year to 30 June 2023, Wide Bay had both the largest and fastest growth (6,700 persons and 2.1%) of the regional Queensland SA4s (which denotes the largest sub-state regions), driven primarily by a large gain through intra and interstate migration (5,410 persons).2
