3232, VIC 3234, VIC

Postcode 3232 and postcode 3234 are two nearby Victorian areas with very different layouts. Postcode 3232 is somewhat walkable, with 61.1% of homes having a 15-minute-city walkshed and 50.5% within walking distance of a school. In contrast, postcode 3234 is mostly car-dependent, where no homes are within a 15-minute walk of a school. Residents in postcode 3232 also tend to be noticeably older, with a typical age of 56 compared to 51 in postcode 3234.

Everyday life shares many similarities across both places, including very similar typical weekly incomes of around $900 and nearly identical unemployment rates. They also both have an equal number of public transport routes and stops. While they share these traits, some gaps are shifting; for example, the difference in the share of children under 15 has widened since 2016, and the gap in typical home-loan payments has narrowed.
