Allendale East Tantanoola

Allendale East (L) and Tantanoola (L) are two small South Australian areas with very different populations. Allendale East (L) is much younger, with a typical resident aged 37 and children under 15 making up 28.2% of the population. This helps explain why 38.4% of adults there are unpaid carers for children and homes are more crowded, with a typical 2.8 people per home. In contrast, Tantanoola (L) is far older, with a typical age of 52 and 40% of people living alone. Tantanoola (L) also has more amenities within a 15-minute walk and a far higher share of homes owned outright at 47.0%.

Everyday life in both places shares some common ground, as almost every home is within a 15-minute walk of a park and virtually no one uses public transport to commute. However, the gaps between them are often widening. Since 2011, the age gap has grown to 15 years and the difference in typical weekly household income has increased to $437, with Allendale East (L) remaining well higher.
