Hindmarsh Mayo

Mayo and Hindmarsh are two South Australian areas with similar population sizes but very different lifestyles. Mayo is a car-dependent area where 93.8% of homes are separate houses and the typical resident is 46. Residents there are far more likely to report no religion (54.6%) and the area has very few people using a language other than English at home (4.2%). In contrast, Hindmarsh is very walkable and more diverse, with 23.2% of people using another language at home. It has a higher share of renters (29.6%) and more townhouses and apartments than Mayo.

This gap in language diversity has widened since 2011, as the difference between the two areas grew from 17.1 to 18.9 percentage points. Despite this, the two areas share very similar typical weekly household incomes, sitting around $1,500. They also have nearly identical shares of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and similar rates of unemployment, with Mayo at 4.0% and Hindmarsh at 5.0%.
