Clarendon Happy Valley

Happy Valley and Clarendon are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different layouts. Happy Valley is a more compact, populated area and is somewhat walkable, with 96.1% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport. In contrast, Clarendon is car-dependent and more spread out, with a typical resident aged 48 compared to 42 in Happy Valley. There are also notable financial gaps; the typical weekly household income in Clarendon is $2,020, which is well higher than the $1,568 seen in Happy Valley.

Both areas sit near the national average for overall advantage and share a similar proportion of residents aged 65 and over. While they are alike in these respects, other gaps have grown since 2011, such as the difference in university qualifications and the share of homes owned outright, which is far higher in Clarendon. This trend is also seen in household incomes, where the gap between the two areas has widened over the last decade.
