4561, QLD 4562, QLD

Postcode 4562 and postcode 4561 are neighbouring areas in Queensland with very similar population sizes. Postcode 4562 is a wealthier and more highly educated area, where 25.1% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher and 24.7% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, postcode 4561 is far more walkable and connected; it has a higher share of homes within a 15-minute walk of a park (43.6%) and health services (19.3%), while postcode 4562 has no homes within a 15-minute walk of health services.

These two areas have drifted further apart over time, with the gap in typical resident age widening to five years, making postcode 4562 noticeably older. They still share many common traits, including the same number of people per home (2.8) and almost identical typical weekly personal incomes of around $765. Both areas also sit far above the national figure for people who do not identify with any religion, though this gap between them has narrowed since 2011.
