Koolywurtie Port Rickaby

Koolywurtie and Port Rickaby are both small, sparsely populated areas in South Australia. They differ most in age and work; Port Rickaby is far older, with a typical resident aged 67 and over half the population (55.1%) being seniors. In contrast, Koolywurtie is younger, with a typical age of 39 and far more adults working or looking for work (81.3% compared to 20.7% in Port Rickaby). This is consistent with the higher incomes in Koolywurtie, where the typical household earns $1,562 a week, far higher than the $787 earned in Port Rickaby.

Everyday life in both places is very similar in some ways, as both have the same share of children under 15 (around 26%) and everyone lives in a separate house. Both areas are car-dependent, with no one within walking distance of public transport or a school. While they share these commonalities, the gaps in health and home ownership are stark; 82.8% of Port Rickaby homes are owned outright and 44.9% of residents have a long-term health condition, both far higher than the figures in Koolywurtie.
