Davenport Finniss

Finniss and Davenport are two South Australian areas with very different profiles. Finniss is a much older area, where the typical resident is 59 and 40.0% of people are aged 65 and over. In contrast, the typical person in Davenport is 41. Finniss also has a higher share of people living alone (31.9%) and more homes owned outright (48.5%). Davenport is more affluent, with a typical weekly household income of $1,809 compared to $1,010 in Finniss, and it is much more walkable, scoring 5.4 (somewhat walkable) against Finniss' 3.4 (mostly car-dependent).

Daily life in both areas shares some common ground, as they have similar rates of one-parent families and very similar proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents. However, the gap in age and wealth has shifted over time. Since 2011, the difference in typical age has grown significantly, with Finniss becoming far older. At the same time, the gap in weekly household income has also widened, with Davenport's lead increasing by nearly $200.
