Naracoorte Lucindale

Naracoorte and Lucindale (L) are two nearby South Australian areas with very different profiles. Naracoorte is a larger, somewhat walkable hub where 20.2% of people were born overseas and 16.2% use another language at home. In contrast, Lucindale (L) is a sparsely populated, car-dependent area where residents are far older, with a typical age of 55 compared to 39 in Naracoorte. Housing also differs sharply; 49.5% of Lucindale (L) homes are owned outright, while Naracoorte has far more renters at 30.5%.

Everyday life shares some common ground, as both areas have similar proportions of people who served in the Defence Force, those needing help with daily activities, and those with a mental health condition. However, several gaps have widened since 2016. The difference in typical age has grown to 16 years, and the gap in overseas births has increased to 12 percentage points. Naracoorte continues to be the more diverse and active center, with a much higher share of recent arrivals and more adults working or looking for work.
