North Shields Tiatukia

Tiatukia and North Shields are neighbouring areas in South Australia with similar populations, but they differ in age and wealth. Tiatukia is the younger of the two, with a typical resident aged 40 compared to 49 in North Shields. This younger profile is reflected in the families; Tiatukia has a well higher share of children under 15 (25.6%) and far more people caring for children unpaid (42.5%). Tiatukia also sees higher typical weekly personal incomes, at $1,043 compared to $742 in North Shields, and a far higher share of residents who completed Year 12 (47.2% versus 36.9%).

While the gap in typical age has remained steady, the two areas are very alike in other ways. Both have similar rates of full-time employment and almost identical shares of people volunteering. They also share a total lack of public transport stops and no homes within walking distance of a 15-minute-city walkshed. These similarities are consistent across the region, where typical weekly rents are nearly the same, sitting around $320 to $345.
