Hartley Wright
Hartley and Wright are neighbouring areas in South Australia with distinct profiles. Hartley is a diverse, highly educated hub where 37.3% of people were born overseas and 32.8% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher. It has a more mobile population, with 42% of residents moving in the last five years, and is very walkable. In contrast, Wright is dominated by family homes, with 91.2% being separate houses and 90.4% having three or more bedrooms. Wright also has a higher share of people with no religion at 46.2%.
Both areas share the same typical resident age of 40 years. This similarity sits alongside a trend of growing divergence in other areas. While they are both very walkable, the gap in the share of people born overseas and those using other languages at home has widened since 2011. Wright has also seen its lead in separate houses grow, while Hartley has seen a rise in renters. This reflects a shifting contrast between Hartley's more urban, transient character and Wright's established residential feel.
