4517, QLD 4518, QLD

Postcode 4518 and postcode 4517 are neighbouring Queensland areas with very different residential profiles. Postcode 4518 is the larger of the two and is geared toward families, with 91.4% of homes having three or more bedrooms and a much higher share of people caring for children unpaid. In contrast, postcode 4517 is more accessible for individuals, with a far higher share of people living alone (25.9%) and a much higher proportion of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries (51.5%) or a school (51.3%).

Since 2011, the two areas have seen some gaps narrow while others have grown. The difference in the share of people living alone and the proportion of large homes has decreased, while the gap in Year 12 completion and the number of older residents has widened. Despite these shifts, they remain very similar in other ways, with almost identical typical weekly personal incomes around $730 and similar shares of people born overseas.
