Buckland Park Waterloo Corner

Waterloo Corner and Buckland Park are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different profiles. Waterloo Corner is an older community where the typical resident is 58 and 39.5% are seniors, compared to 45 and 18.2% in Buckland Park. This age gap helps explain why Waterloo Corner has far more people living alone (29.9% vs 10.5%) and a much higher share of homes owned outright at 64.8%, while Buckland Park has a far higher typical weekly income of $1,775 compared to $936 in Waterloo Corner.

These two areas have tracked in similar directions since 2011, but they share a common struggle with local accessibility. Neither area has any homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or schools. They also both have about the same small share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher, sitting at around 5%. While Buckland Park is far more likely to have residents who use a language other than English at home (50.5% vs 33.5%), both areas sit well above the national figure for this measure.
