Kangaroo Island Yankalilla

Kangaroo Island and Yankalilla are both South Australian areas with populations that are smaller than most areas of their type. Kangaroo Island has a far higher number of public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people, and more residents live within a 15-minute walk of a park. Yankalilla is an older area, with a typical resident aged 56 compared to 50 on Kangaroo Island. Yankalilla also has a far larger number of schools, though Kangaroo Island's average school size is much higher at 710 students.

The two areas are very similar in many ways, including their typical weekly household incomes of around $1,100 and the same number of people per home. Since 2011, some gaps have widened, such as the difference in the number of people living alone and those in de facto relationships, both of which are well higher on Kangaroo Island. However, the gap in the share of people aged 65 and over has narrowed, although this figure remains far above the national figure in both places.
