Clarendon Flagstaff Hill

Flagstaff Hill and Clarendon are nearby South Australian areas with very different layouts. Flagstaff Hill is a more compact, diverse hub where 28.0% of people were born overseas and 14.1% use another language at home. It is described as somewhat walkable, with 87.9% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport. In contrast, Clarendon is a larger, car-dependent area where only 16.8% were born overseas and 2.9% use another language at home. It is further from the city, with a typical commute of 31 minutes compared to 19 minutes in Flagstaff Hill.

Typical weekly household incomes are almost identical in both places, sitting around $2,000. They also share similar levels of higher education and the same number of schools. However, some gaps are growing; residents in Clarendon are noticeably older, and the age gap between the two areas has widened since 2011. While Flagstaff Hill has a higher share of people who completed Year 12, both areas sit far above the national figure for people with no religion.
