In the 2011 census it had a typically resident population of 1,283, with a substantial percentage of Roman Catholics. It develops part of the area administered by Comhairle nan Eilean Siar or the Western Isles Council. The island is about 12 km from west to eastern and also a similar distance from north to southern. It lies between the islands of North Uist and South Uist; it is connected to both by road causeways. Travel to any one of the various other Hebridean islands, or to the British landmass, is by air or sea. Benbecula Airport on the island has everyday flights to Glasgow, Stornoway and also Barra. A direct service to Inverness was presented in 2006 however ceased in May 2007. There are no straight ferryboat solutions from Benbecula to the mainland, however a service run by Caledonian MacBrayne from Lochboisdale on South Uist provides a five-hour crossing to Oban on the mainland, whilst an additional solution from Lochmaddy on North Uist provides a two-hour crossing to Uig on the Inner Hebridean island of Skye, and thus to the mainland through the Skye Bridge. Ferry services from the islands of Berneray (linked by embankment to North Uist) as well as Eriskay (linked to South Uist) attach to the various other Outer Hebridean islands of Harris and Barra respectively. There is a thick collection of lochs across virtually the entire island, as well as almost all of the island is listed below 20 metres in altitude.
