First Nations residents in Tingha are noticeably older than the national figure, with a typical age of 30. However, they face significant hurdles, with Year 12 completion at 17.1% and typical personal incomes of $424, which is well below the Australian figure.
The area is somewhat walkable and most homes are near health services, but no one can walk to groceries. While 86% of homes have a good 15-minute walkshed, this is far above the state average since the town lacks a local supermarket.
