Ballina Teven

Ballina and Teven are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Ballina is a much larger hub with a far older population, where the typical resident is 56 and 38.4% are aged 65 or over. It has more renters and a higher proportion of people living alone (41.8%). In contrast, Teven is a smaller area where homes are mostly separate houses (95.1%) and typically larger, with 87.3% having three or more bedrooms. Teven also has a wealthier profile, with a typical weekly household income of $1,825 compared to $1,013 in Ballina.

Both areas are similar in that their shares of people in de facto relationships sit close to each other. This commonality exists alongside a divide in how people get around; Ballina is very walkable with easy access to parks and schools, while Teven is car-dependent. These gaps have been significant, as Teven has far more people working from home (24.8%) and a much higher share of adults working or looking for work (68.4%) than Ballina.
