Postcode comparison ≈ 28 km apart · 4285, QLD profile · 4310, QLD profile

4285, QLD 4310, QLD

Postcode 4285 and postcode 4310 are two nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Postcode 4310 is much older, with a typical resident aged 50 and 28.6% of people aged 65 and over, compared to 41 years and 18.6% in postcode 4285. This older demographic in postcode 4310 is consistent with a much higher rate of outright home ownership (47.8% compared to 29.5% in postcode 4285) and a far higher share of recent overseas arrivals at 16.9%. In contrast, postcode 4285 has a younger feel, with children under 15 making up 20.2% of the population and a higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at 6.0%.

Both areas are nearly identical in the share of people who provide unpaid care, which sits around the national figure. They also share similar rates of Year 12 completion and similar levels of access to money and resources. However, some gaps are widening; the difference in typical age and the share of people who own their homes outright have both increased since 2011.
