Avoca Dell Toora

Avoca Dell and Toora (SA) are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different household profiles. Avoca Dell is much younger, with a typical resident aged 35 and 25.9% of the population being children under 15. This helps explain why homes there are larger, with 78.2% having three or more bedrooms, and why 43.4% of people provide unpaid childcare. In contrast, Toora (SA) is far older, with a typical age of 44. It is also more likely to have residents who completed Year 12 (54.5% compared to 34.8% in Avoca Dell) and those who volunteer (31.6%).

While these areas are close by, the gap in home ownership is widening, as Toora (SA) has far more homes owned outright at 50%. Both places are very car-dependent, with no one within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or schools. They also share a similar proportion of people aged 65 and over, at around 7%. However, the two areas differ in their connectivity; Avoca Dell has more street intersections per square kilometre and more homes within walking distance of a park.
