Bordertown Mundulla

Bordertown and Mundulla (L) are neighbouring South Australian towns with very different social profiles. Bordertown is more diverse and younger, with a typical resident aged 39 and 21.5% of people born overseas. In contrast, Mundulla (L) is far older, with a typical age of 50, and only 6.5% of its residents were born overseas. These differences extend to housing; Bordertown has far higher rental rates at 27.1%, while Mundulla (L) is dominated by homeowners, with 51.2% of homes owned outright.

The two towns are almost identical when it comes to typical personal income, which is around $810 a week for both. This shared economic baseline exists alongside a growing divide in other areas; since 2011, the age gap has widened from 2 to 11 years, and the difference in the share of people born overseas has nearly tripled. While both areas are very high for volunteering, Bordertown offers better access to health services and parks within a 15-minute walk.
