Coulta Wangary

Coulta and Wangary are two nearby South Australian areas with similar population sizes, but they have very different residents. Coulta is a much younger place where 26.8% of people are children under 15, compared to just 7.9% in Wangary. This age gap is reflected in the home lives of residents; 37.3% of people in Coulta provide unpaid childcare, which is far higher than the 11.5% seen in Wangary. Coulta also has a much higher share of people in de facto relationships (24.1% versus 9.6%) and more people who have finished Year 12.

Both areas are almost identical in their reliance on cars, with no one commuting by public transport and every home owning a motor vehicle. They also share very similar rates of long-term health conditions and typical monthly home-loan payments. While Coulta has a much higher share of people with no religion (64.8%) compared to Wangary (45.3%), both areas sit well above the national figure for this measure.
