Oodnadatta Tieyon

Oodnadatta and Tieyon are both sparsely populated areas of South Australia, but they differ sharply in their social and economic profiles. Oodnadatta has a much larger First Nations population at 68.6% and a higher share of one-parent families at 35.0%. In contrast, Tieyon has much higher levels of education and income, with 71.9% of residents completing Year 12 and a typical weekly household income of $2,333, compared to $668 in Oodnadatta. These differences are reflected in their work lives; Tieyon is dominated by agriculture and forestry, while Oodnadatta has more people working in education and public administration.

Both areas have tracked in different directions since 2011, with the gaps between them shifting over time. They share some basics, such as having no public transport stops and similar small school sizes. However, their physical layouts differ, as Oodnadatta is somewhat walkable while Tieyon is car-dependent. Oodnadatta also has more homes within a 15-minute walk of a school (95.1%) and a park (94.5%), while in Tieyon, these figures are much lower at 9.8% and 4.9% respectively.
