3037, VIC 3428, VIC

Postcode 3037 is a large, very walkable area with a young population and a high level of diversity, where 44.3% of people use a language other than English at home. In contrast, postcode 3428 is sparsely populated and mostly car-dependent, with a much older population; its typical resident is 45, compared to 36 in postcode 3037. These two areas differ sharply in their housing and education, with postcode 3037 having a far higher share of people who completed Year 12 (64.0% vs 48.0%) and postcode 3428 having far more homes owned outright (44.0% vs 30.1%).
