Hardwicke Bay Yorketown

Yorketown and Hardwicke Bay are two nearby South Australian areas with very different layouts and job markets. Yorketown is more of a hub, where 60.5% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of shops and services, and full-time employment is far higher at 50.5%. In contrast, Hardwicke Bay is more car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. Hardwicke Bay has a much older population, with a typical resident aged 61 compared to 53 in Yorketown, and a far higher unemployment rate of 19.6%.

Both areas share a similar landscape, with almost identical average terrain slopes. They also both have very low numbers of recent overseas arrivals and no residents who speak little or no English. While Yorketown is mostly car-dependent and Hardwicke Bay is car-dependent, the gap between them in terms of walkability has remained significant. Both areas sit well below the national figure for typical weekly household incomes, which are $949 in Yorketown and $735 in Hardwicke Bay.
