Kuitpo Meadows

Meadows and Kuitpo are neighbouring South Australian areas with very different profiles. Meadows is more family-oriented, with 20.9% of people under 15 and a typical resident aged 39. It is also more walkable (somewhat walkable) and has a higher share of people caring for children unpaid (33.6%). Kuitpo is much older and wealthier; the typical resident is 55, 41.2% of households earn $3,000 or more a week, and 47.1% of homes are owned outright. Kuitpo also has a more highly qualified workforce, with 27.6% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher.

Both areas are almost identical in the number of people per home, which sits at 2.7. This similarity exists alongside a stark contrast in how residents get around.
