Ceduna Eyre Peninsula

Ceduna and Eyre Peninsula are two South Australian areas with very different social profiles. Ceduna has a much larger First Nations population at 24.1%, compared with 2.8% in Eyre Peninsula. The two areas also differ in housing and age; residents in Eyre Peninsula are far older, with a typical age of 49 compared with 39 in Ceduna, and 47.7% of homes there are owned outright. In contrast, renting is far more common in Ceduna, where 39.5% of households rent. This is consistent with Ceduna's more urban layout, as more people there live within a 15-minute walk of groceries (54.6%) and health services (36.9%).

Everyday life shares many similarities in both places, including a typical weekly rent of $220 and almost identical weekly household incomes. Both areas also have a similar share of adults with bachelor degrees. However, some gaps are widening; the difference in age and the proportion of homes owned outright have both grown since 2011. While both areas have high volunteer rates, this is far higher in Eyre Peninsula at 33.6%.
