# Demographics & Identity — Sunnydale

Who lives here — how many people, how old they are, and how communities identify.

Area: Sunnydale (Suburb / Locality)

A very small population of just 39 people lives in Sunnydale, where the community has become exceptionally old. The typical resident is now 68, making the area far older than the national figure.

With a typical resident aged 68, Sunnydale is far older than both South Australia and the rest of the country. The total population is small, with fewer people here than in about 76% of similar areas.

No residents identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, which is well below the national figure. Most people are married, though those in de facto relationships are a little less common here than in the rest of Australia.

Seniors make up 69.2% of the population, which is far above the state and national figures. This shift is stark, as there are no children under 15 or young adults living here.
