3139, VIC 3796, VIC

Postcode 3139 and postcode 3796 are two nearby Victorian areas with very different layouts. Postcode 3796 is more urban and walkable, with 74.5% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport, compared to 55% in postcode 3139. This contrast extends to the streets, where postcode 3796 has far more intersections per square kilometre (47 versus 5). Postcode 3796 also has more public transport routes and a much higher volume of weekly departures per 1,000 people. In contrast, postcode 3139 is more car-dependent and has more schools within 3km, though they are typically smaller than those in postcode 3796.

Some differences have become more pronounced over time, such as the gap in higher education and high-income earners, which have both widened since 2011.
