Port Kenny Talia

Port Kenny and Talia are both sparsely populated areas in South Australia. Port Kenny is more walkable and has more amenities, with a walkability score of 2.7 (mostly car-dependent) and 88.7% of homes within 15 minutes of a park. In contrast, Talia is car-dependent, with only 2.3% of homes near a park. There are also notable differences in wealth and age; the typical resident in Talia is far older at 62 compared to 52 in Port Kenny, and the typical weekly household income is far higher in Talia at $1,375, compared to $662 in Port Kenny.

Both areas are very remote, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or schools. This shared lack of local services is consistent with both areas sitting well below the national figure for typical household and personal incomes. While Port Kenny has a slightly higher number of people per home at 1.9, the gap between the two remains significant in terms of income and age.
