Moorong Yarragundry

Moorong and Yarragundry are neighbouring areas with very different demographics. Moorong is a younger place where children under 15 make up 26.3% of the population and the typical resident is 37. This is a stark contrast to Yarragundry, where residents are far older with a typical age of 58 and seniors aged 65 and over account for 27.8%. This age gap is reflected in the homes, as 75.8% of Yarragundry's houses are owned outright, while 50.0% of Moorong homes have a mortgage and typical monthly loan payments are far higher at $2,600.

Both areas have almost identical rates of people born overseas and neither has anyone who speaks little or no English. These commonalities exist even as the gap in typical household income has widened, with Moorong now earning well more than Yarragundry. While both areas are largely car-dependent, Moorong has more street connectivity and is more likely to be within a short walk of a park or school.
