Glencoe vs Wepar

Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 11 km apart · Glencoe profile · Wepar profile

Glencoe Wepar

Glencoe (SA) and Wepar are two nearby South Australian areas with very different profiles. Glencoe (SA) is the larger of the two, with a far older typical resident (43 years compared to 34 in Wepar) and a much higher share of people in de facto relationships. The two areas differ sharply in community activity and family life; Glencoe (SA) has far more volunteers (30.5% versus 7.7% in Wepar) and a much higher proportion of people caring for children unpaid (33.6% compared to 17.9% in Wepar).

While these differences are stark, some gaps have widened since 2011, such as the trend of residents being far older in Glencoe (SA). Despite this, they share several common traits, including very similar typical weekly household incomes of around $1,400 and the same lack of public transport. Both areas also sit far below the national figure for Year 12 completion and have virtually no residents who speak a language other than English.
