Narungga Port Adelaide

Narungga and Port Adelaide are two very different South Australian areas. Narungga is far older, with a typical resident aged 55 and a much higher share of people aged 65 and over (32.8%). Port Adelaide is more diverse, with 20.6% of people born overseas and a typical resident aged 44. Port Adelaide is also very walkable, while Narungga is mostly car-dependent. This is reflected in the housing, where Narungga has far more separate houses (93.2%) and a much higher share of homes owned outright (49.3%).

The gap in the typical age of residents has widened since 2011, growing from 4 years to 11 years.

They also have very similar unemployment rates, which sit around 6%.
