4000, QLD 4060, QLD

Postcode 4000 and postcode 4060 are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Postcode 4000 is a high-density hub where 66.3% of households rent, 49.5% of people were born overseas, and 40% of residents live alone. In contrast, postcode 4060 is more suburban, with a far higher share of separate houses (77.3% compared to 8.7% in postcode 4000) and a much larger presence of families, as 20.8% of its population are children under 15. This family focus is reflected in the workforce, with 32.5% of people in postcode 4060 providing unpaid childcare, compared to just 10.9% in postcode 4000.

Everyday life in both places is defined by excellent accessibility, as nearly every home in both areas is within a 10-minute walk of public transport and a 15-minute walk of a park. They also share a highly skilled workforce and very similar typical weekly rents of around $440 to $450. However, the gap between them is widening in several ways; more people are now moving into postcode 4000, and those living there are increasingly likely to use a language other than English at home.
