It is an older area where the typical resident is 52 and 29.6% are aged 65 or over, and it has a high proportion of people living alone at 38.1%. Diggora is car-dependent, with no amenities within a 15-minute walk and a much smaller population. In Diggora, homes are generally larger, with 96.4% having three or more bedrooms, and typical weekly household incomes are far higher at $1,625, compared to $909 in Elmore.
