Grant Naracoorte Surrounds

Grant and Naracoorte Surrounds are two rural South Australian areas with distinct workforce and lifestyle profiles. Naracoorte Surrounds has a much higher share of adults working or looking for work (70.1% compared to 54.8% in Grant) and far more people working from home (26.4% versus 11.2%). It also has a higher proportion of residents who finished Year 12 (47.7% against 33.8%) and a greater number of volunteers (39.5% compared to 17.3%). In contrast, Grant is better suited for pedestrians, with more homes within a 15-minute walk of parks (33.5% versus 12.5%) and groceries (10.1% versus 0.0%).

Since 2011, the gaps between these two areas have often widened. The difference in the share of people working from home and those working or looking for work has grown, and Naracoorte Surrounds has seen its lead in volunteering increase. Despite these shifting trends, the two areas remain very similar in other ways. They share almost identical typical weekly household incomes, around $1,600, and have the same small percentage of residents who use a language other than English at home (1.8%).
