4037, QLD 4055, QLD

Postcode 4055 and postcode 4037 are neighbouring areas in Greater Brisbane with very different levels of accessibility. Postcode 4055 is far more walkable, with 68.2% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a "15-minute-city" walkshed, compared to 39.4% in postcode 4037. This is supported by far more public transport stops and a higher number of schools per 1,000 children. In contrast, postcode 4037 is more reliant on cars, with a higher share of separate houses (99.2%) and larger homes, as 98.5% of its dwellings have three or more bedrooms.

Both areas share a typical resident age of 38 and the same proportion of children under 15. While they are similar in this way, other gaps are shifting; for example, the share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher is well higher in postcode 4055, and this gap has widened since 2011. Postcode 4055 also has a higher proportion of renters (18.3% compared to 10.2%), a difference that has also grown over time.
