Aldinga Victor Harbor

Victor Harbor and Aldinga are two similar-sized areas in South Australia, but they have very different populations. Victor Harbor is a retirement hub where the typical resident is 60 and 43.2% of people are aged 65 or over. This helps explain why 50.5% of homes are owned outright and long-term health conditions are far higher than in Aldinga. In contrast, Aldinga is much younger, with a typical age of 40 and 20% of the population being children under 15. There is also a larger presence of young adults and more people caring for children unpaid.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of residents born overseas, at around 19%.
