Mimili Tieyon

Mimili and Tieyon are two remote South Australian areas with very different profiles. Mimili is a young community where 86.3% of people are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and 26.7% of residents are children under 15. In contrast, Tieyon is sparsely populated and has a much older feel, with people aged 65 and over making up 15.0% of the population. Economic gaps are stark; the typical weekly household income in Tieyon is $2,333, while in Mimili it is $1,286.

Everyday life in both places is largely car-dependent, as neither area has any public transport stops. They also both have exactly one school within 3 km. However, the two areas have tracked differently since 2011, with Mimili remaining a hub for education and health services while Tieyon is dominated by agriculture. This is reflected in the workforce, with 91.3% of Tieyon residents working in agriculture, forestry and fishing, compared to 43.4% in Mimili working in education and training.
