Tanunda Cockatoo Valley

Tanunda and Cockatoo Valley (L) are two nearby South Australian areas with very different layouts. Tanunda is a somewhat walkable hub where 88.0% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, while Cockatoo Valley (L) is car-dependent with no homes within walking distance of a shop. Tanunda has a much older population, with a typical resident aged 49 and 28.1% of people aged 65 and over. In contrast, Cockatoo Valley (L) is younger and wealthier; typical weekly household incomes are $2,257, which is $817 more than the $1,440 typical in Tanunda.

Daily life in both places shares some similarities, such as having the same unemployment rate of 3.1% and almost identical proportions of people working from home. However, the gaps between them are often widening. The difference in typical age has grown to 7 years since 2011, and the income gap has also increased. While both areas have more people born overseas than the national figure, this trend is more pronounced in Cockatoo Valley (L), where 15.3% of residents were born abroad.
