Goyder Orroroo Carrieton

Goyder and Orroroo Carrieton are two rural South Australian areas with distinct profiles. Orroroo Carrieton is generally more advantaged, with far higher scores for education and job skills, money and resources, and overall advantage. It also has a higher share of homes owned outright at 60.3%, compared to 49.3% in Goyder. In contrast, Goyder has more accessible infrastructure, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of a park (42.5% versus 24.5%) and more public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people.

Since 2011, the two areas have diverged in several ways. The gap in people born overseas and those with no religion has widened, with both measures now well higher in Goyder. At the same time, some gaps are closing; for instance, the difference in the share of homes owned outright has narrowed. Despite these shifts, they remain very similar in some respects, such as having the same typical household size of 2.2 people and a First Nations median age of 38 years.
