Postcode comparison ≈ 26 km apart · 3292, VIC profile · 3304, VIC profile

3292, VIC 3304, VIC

Postcode 3304 and postcode 3292 are two nearby Victorian areas with very different profiles. Postcode 3292 is sparsely populated and far older, with a typical resident aged 60 compared to 49 in postcode 3304. This age gap is seen in the high proportion of seniors in postcode 3292, where 42.4% of residents are 65 or older. In contrast, postcode 3304 is more family-oriented, with a much higher share of children under 15 (16.7%) and more people caring for children unpaid (22.4%). Postcode 3304 also offers far more walkable access to groceries, schools and health services, while postcode 3292 is largely car-dependent.

Everyday life in both places shares some common ground, with very similar typical weekly household incomes and an almost identical unemployment rate of 3.7%. Both areas are dominated by detached houses and have nearly the same share of people who have served in the Defence Force. Over time, however, some gaps have widened; the difference in the number of people who own their homes outright and the share of seniors has both grown since 2011.
