3220, VIC 3224, VIC

Postcode 3220 and postcode 3224 are neighbouring areas in Victoria with very different profiles. Postcode 3220 is a walker's paradise, where 97.8% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed and 39% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher. It is a more transient and affluent area, with 44.3% of people moving in the last five years and 28.6% of households earning $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, postcode 3224 is somewhat walkable and more residential, with 91.9% of homes being separate houses and a higher proportion of older residents, as 24.1% are aged 65 and over.

Both areas share a similar employment landscape, with about 55% of people working full-time and nearly identical unemployment rates of around 4%. They also have very similar typical weekly rents, sitting at $360 in postcode 3220 and $370 in postcode 3224. However, the gap in education and income has widened since 2011, and separate houses are now far more common in postcode 3224 than they were relative to its neighbour.
