Happy Valley and Reynella are neighbouring areas in South Australia with distinct profiles. Happy Valley has higher overall advantage and more residents with university degrees (19.4% compared to 15.0% in Reynella).

In contrast, Reynella is much more walkable, with 95.0% of homes within a 15-minute walk of the nearest services, far higher than the 72.7% in Happy Valley. Reynella also has far more school enrolments (2,518) and larger average school sizes than Happy Valley.

Everyday life is very similar in both places, as they share almost identical proportions of children under 15 and people who speak little or no English.
