Caloote Mypolonga

Mypolonga and Caloote are neighbouring areas in South Australia that differ significantly in age and family makeup. Mypolonga is much younger, with 20.8% of people under 15, compared to just 9.8% in Caloote. This younger population is reflected in the homes, where 86.9% of Mypolonga's dwellings have three or more bedrooms and 26.2% are within a 15-minute walk of a school. Caloote is far older, with a typical resident aged 56 and a high share of seniors aged 65 and over at 36.8%.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining almost entirely residential with no homes within walking distance of groceries or health services. They are effectively alike in their housing styles, as every home in both areas is a separate detached house. While Caloote has more public transport stops, neither area sees any residents commuting by public transport. This shared reliance on cars is consistent across both locations.
