Indee South Hedland

South Hedland and Indee are two very different parts of the Port Hedland region. South Hedland is a large hub where the typical resident is 32, while Indee is sparsely populated with a much older typical age of 51. Life in South Hedland is focused around accessible services, with 68.2% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school and a walkability score of 4.6 (somewhat walkable). In contrast, Indee is car-dependent, with no public transport stops or schools within 3 km.

Both areas are almost identical when it comes to the slope of the land, though Indee is slightly steeper. While the two places share this physical trait, their demographics and infrastructure differ greatly; for instance, South Hedland has a far larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population. Weekly personal income is a little higher in Indee, where the usual amount is $1,687 compared to $1,415 in South Hedland.
