Bragg Dunstan

Dunstan and Bragg are neighbouring areas in South Australia with similar population sizes, but they differ in how people live. Bragg has a much higher share of separate houses (67.3% compared to 51.7% in Dunstan) and larger homes, with 72.6% of dwellings having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Dunstan is far more walkable, with 100% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 99.9% near health services. Renting is also far more common in Dunstan, where 36% of households rent, compared to just 20.1% in Bragg.

These two areas have tracked closely since 2011, though some gaps are narrowing. For example, the difference in typical resident age has shrunk from six years to four years. While they differ on housing and walkability, they are very similar in other ways, such as having nearly identical shares of people who speak little or no English and similar typical weekly personal incomes. Both areas also have high levels of education, with typical residents in both places far exceeding the national figure for university degrees.
