Blanchetown Morgan

Morgan (L) and Blanchetown (L) are both small, sparsely populated areas in South Australia. Morgan (L) is very walkable, with nearly every home within a 15-minute walk of a park, school, health services, and groceries. In contrast, Blanchetown (L) is mostly car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of health services or groceries. Other key differences include family structures and age; Morgan (L) has a far higher share of one-parent families at 28.9%, while residents in Blanchetown (L) are noticeably older, with a typical age of 59.

Daily life in both places is similar in that typical weekly personal incomes are nearly the same, around $490, and almost no one uses public transport to commute. While both areas have a high proportion of seniors compared to the national figure, the gap between them has narrowed since 2011. This is also true for the typical age of residents, which was 30 years apart in 2011 but is now only 5 years.
