King Schubert

Schubert and King are two South Australian areas with similar population sizes but very different layouts. King is far more urban, with a walkability score of 5.1 (somewhat walkable) and 89.1% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport. In contrast, Schubert is mostly car-dependent with a score of 2.8, and only 41.5% of homes are near public transport. Schubert is also older, with a typical resident aged 45 and 21.4% of the population aged 65 and over, compared to 41 and 17.1% in King. Diversity is also higher in King, where 22.8% of people were born overseas compared to 12.4% in Schubert.

These two areas share a great deal in common, with nearly identical shares of children under 15, people with no religion, and adults with a bachelor degree or higher. Their typical weekly household incomes are also very close, sitting around $1,600 to $1,700. While some gaps have shifted, such as the difference in overseas births narrowing since 2011, others have grown, including the gap in Year 12 completion rates.
