3022, VIC 3026, VIC

Postcode 3026 and postcode 3022 are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Postcode 3026 is a family-oriented area where 27.8% of people are children under 15, and the typical home is a separate house with three or more bedrooms (93.3%). It also has a higher share of high earners, with 28.3% of households making $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, postcode 3022 has a much higher proportion of older residents, with 16.3% aged 65 and over, and far more people living alone (32.0%).

Both areas are similarly diverse, as a high share of residents in both use a language other than English at home. While they share this trait, the two areas have drifted apart in other ways since 2011. The gap in home ownership has widened, with homes owned outright now far more common in postcode 3022. At the same time, the difference in the number of children is stark; postcode 3026 is far more likely to have children under 15, a lead that has flipped since 2011.
