Postcode comparison ≈ 76 km apart · 4470, QLD profile · 4479, QLD profile

4470, QLD 4479, QLD

Postcode 4470 and postcode 4479 are two rural Queensland areas with very different profiles. Postcode 4470 is the more populated of the two, with residents who are typically younger at 42 and earn a far higher typical weekly personal income of $825. In contrast, postcode 4479 is sparsely populated, with a much older typical age of 59 and a typical weekly personal income that is far lower at $374. Postcode 4470 also offers much better local access, with 72.2% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a park and 60.2% near a school, while postcode 4479 is almost entirely car-dependent.

Both areas sit near the national figure for typical household income, which is around $1,300 a week. This shared financial baseline exists alongside a widening gap in age and income; since 2016, the age difference has grown from 11 to 17 years. They also share a lack of public transport and similar terrain, though the two areas have moved further apart in terms of the typical weekly personal income gap.
