Naracoorte Naracoorte Surrounds

Naracoorte and Naracoorte Surrounds are nearby South Australian areas with very different lifestyles. Naracoorte is a more diverse hub where 18.4% of people were born overseas and 13.8% use another language at home. It is mostly car-dependent but more walkable than its neighbour, with many residents living within a 15-minute walk of health services (59.3%) and groceries (54.2%). In contrast, Naracoorte Surrounds is a car-dependent rural area where 49.1% of homes are owned outright and 26.4% of people work from home. Residents here are more likely to be managers, while Naracoorte has a higher share of labourers.

Since 2011, the gaps between the two areas have generally widened, particularly regarding the number of people born overseas and those working from home. Despite these shifts, the two areas remain similar in some fundamental ways. They have almost identical shares of children under 15 and First Nations people, and the typical number of people per home is nearly the same at about 2.4 to 2.5. Both areas also have similar unemployment rates, which sit well below the national figure.
