Dartmoor Allendale East

Allendale East and Dartmoor are both sparsely populated areas, but they have very different residents. Allendale East is much younger, with a typical age of 37 and 28.2% of people being children under 15. In contrast, the typical resident in Dartmoor is far older at 53, and 28.3% of the population are seniors aged 65 and over. This age gap helps explain why 38.4% of people in Allendale East are caring for children unpaid, compared to just 17.7% in Dartmoor.

Both areas are very similar in other ways, such as having nearly identical proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents and people born overseas. While they share these commonalities, their accessibility differs. Dartmoor is somewhat walkable with more local amenities, while Allendale East is car-dependent. Since 2011, the gap between them has widened in several areas, particularly regarding age and home ownership, with homes now far more likely to be owned outright in Dartmoor.
