Humbug Scrub Yattalunga

Humbug Scrub and Yattalunga (SA) are neighbouring South Australian areas with small populations. Yattalunga (SA) is wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $2,600 compared to $2,078 in Humbug Scrub, and it is far more likely to have households earning $3,000 or more a week (35.5% versus 22.1%). The two areas differ significantly in accessibility; Humbug Scrub is much further from the city, with a drive time of 84 minutes compared to 40 minutes for Yattalunga (SA). Yattalunga (SA) also provides better local access to shops and services, with 15.7 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents compared to just 2.4 in Humbug Scrub.
