Minlaton Yorketown

Minlaton (L) and Yorketown (L) are nearby towns on the Yorke Peninsula with very different levels of convenience. Yorketown (L) is very walkable, with almost every home within 15 minutes of a school, health services, and groceries. In contrast, Minlaton (L) is mostly car-dependent, as no homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. Minlaton (L) also has a higher share of people with no religion (48.4%) and more residents aged 65 and over (41.1%).

The two areas have tracked differently since 2011, as the gap in typical age has narrowed from nine years to just three. Both places are much older than the national figure, and they share similar proportions of children and overseas-born residents. They are also alike in their typical family incomes and the percentage of adults with a bachelor degree or higher. While Minlaton (L) is now slightly higher in typical weekly household income at $911, this is a flip from 2011 when Yorketown (L) held the lead.
