4553, QLD 4555, QLD

Postcode 4553 and postcode 4555 are nearby Queensland areas with very different profiles. Postcode 4553 is much younger, with a typical resident aged 34 and 22.2% of people under 15, while the typical resident in postcode 4555 is 43. This younger population in postcode 4553 helps explain why more people have moved there in the last five years (60.4% compared to 42.8% in postcode 4555) and why there are more children to care for. Everyday life also differs in accessibility; postcode 4555 has far more homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries (41.1%) and health services (26.2%), whereas postcode 4553 has no homes within that walking distance of health services.

Both areas share a similar level of overall advantage, with both sitting around the national average. They are also alike in their unemployment rates and the share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher. While they share these commonalities, some gaps are growing; the difference in typical age has widened from 2 years to 9 years since 2011, and the gap in outright home ownership has grown to 13 percentage points.
