The Bight Tinonee

Tinonee and The Bight are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Tinonee is more populated and more accessible, with a walkability score of 3.5 (mostly car-dependent) and a higher share of people who have moved in recently (40.6%). In contrast, The Bight is sparsely populated and far more car-dependent. It has a much older population, with a typical age of 57 compared to 46 in Tinonee, and a much higher proportion of residents working from home (44.4% versus 7.4%).

While they differ in these areas, the two places share some basic characteristics, such as having the same proportion of homes owned outright (44.0%). They are also alike in that almost no one uses public transport to get to work. However, some gaps have widened over time, such as the age difference, with residents now far older in The Bight. This is consistent with other trends there, including a much higher rate of volunteering (41.5%) and a higher share of people aged 65 and over (28.3%).
