Denial Bay Koonibba

Denial Bay and Koonibba are two sparsely populated areas in South Australia with very different social profiles. Koonibba has a much higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 92.1%, compared to 9.2% in Denial Bay. Residents in Denial Bay are far older, with a typical age of 46 and 26.1% aged 65 or over, whereas Koonibba is much younger with a typical age of 31. Financial gaps are also large; the typical personal income in Denial Bay is $601 per week, which is far higher than the $344 typical in Koonibba.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011 in terms of their lack of public transport and their reliance on separate houses, as both are entirely car-dependent. They share a similar landscape with low terrain slopes and a total absence of people who speak little or no English. However, they differ in how people live; while 91.8% of homes in Koonibba are rented, 40.9% of homes in Denial Bay are owned outright.
