O'Connor Lingiari

O'Connor and Lingiari are both vast areas, though they differ sharply in their makeup. Lingiari has a much younger population, with a typical resident aged 32, and a far higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at 40.3%. In contrast, O'Connor is far older, with a typical age of 42 and a much higher proportion of people aged 65 and over (19.8%). Home ownership also varies greatly; 36.8% of homes in O'Connor are owned outright, compared to just 15.1% in Lingiari.
