4209, QLD 4214, QLD

Postcode 4209 and postcode 4214 are nearby Queensland areas with very different populations. Postcode 4209 is a young hub where the typical resident is 30, and children under 15 make up 25.9% of the population. This is reflected in the housing and services, with a high share of renters (47.2%) and 70.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school. In contrast, postcode 4214 is far older, with a typical age of 40 and 18.2% of residents aged 65 or over. Residents there are more likely to own their homes outright (29.6% compared to 12.4% in postcode 4209) and have better access to groceries, with 69.3% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a store.

Daily life in both places shares several similarities, including a typical weekly family income of around $1,980 and similar monthly mortgage payments of $1,950. They also have nearly identical shares of separate houses and people working from home. While they share these basics, some gaps are widening; the age difference between the two has grown since 2011, and the gap in outright home ownership has also increased.
