3852, VIC 3864, VIC

Postcode 3864 and postcode 3852 are both sparsely populated areas in Victoria. They differ sharply in age and income; residents in postcode 3864 are far older, with a typical age of 48 compared to 24 in postcode 3852. The financial gap is also wide, as the typical weekly family income in postcode 3852 is $4,250, far higher than the $1,583 seen in postcode 3864. While postcode 3864 has more children (13.3% compared to 1.4%), postcode 3852 is far more highly qualified, with 60.8% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to just 9.8% in postcode 3864.

Both are also entirely reliant on cars, with every home possessing a motor vehicle and walkability scores that are either car-dependent or mostly car-dependent.
