Orroroo Carrieton Unincorporated SA

Unincorporated SA and Orroroo Carrieton are two distant South Australian areas with very different social makeups. Unincorporated SA has a much larger First Nations population at 24.4% and far more people who use a language other than English at home (15.6%). In contrast, Orroroo Carrieton is far older, with a typical resident aged 52 and 28.5% of people aged 65 and over. Housing also differs sharply; Unincorporated SA has a much higher share of renters at 35.2%, while 60.3% of homes in Orroroo Carrieton are owned outright.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the typical number of people per home, with around 2.1 or 2.2 residents. This shared domestic scale exists alongside a widening gap in cultural identity and home ownership. Since 2011, the difference in the share of people who identify as First Nations has grown, and the gap in the number of people using another language at home has also increased.
