3088, VIC 3091, VIC

Postcode 3088 and postcode 3091 are neighbouring areas with very different layouts. Postcode 3088 is very walkable, with 78.6% of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services and 31.8% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, postcode 3091 is mostly car-dependent, where 100% of homes are separate houses and the typical resident is noticeably older at 47.

Everyday life in both places is similar in terms of typical weekly incomes, which sit around $900 for individuals and $2,500 for families.
