Blyth Kybunga

Blyth and Kybunga are nearby South Australian areas with very different profiles. Kybunga is far more likely to have residents with a bachelor degree or higher (31.5% compared to 8.8% in Blyth) and people working from home (37.9% versus 7.5%). Blyth is more of a hub, with a walkability score of 2.5 (mostly car-dependent) and 70.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school, while Kybunga is strictly car-dependent with no amenities within that walking distance. Other differences include Blyth's higher share of larger homes with three or more bedrooms (83.2% against 61.9%) and a far higher share of people with no religion (45.8% versus 31.9%).

Both areas share an identical typical resident age of 42 and have the same 87-minute drive time to the city. They are also alike in that no one uses public transport to get to work.
