4823, QLD 4890, QLD

Postcode 4890 has a far higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 55.4%, compared to 4.7% in postcode 4823. It also has a much higher share of one-parent families (33.4% vs 8.3%) and renters (63.2% vs 24.3%). In contrast, postcode 4823 is far more likely to have residents who work from home (30.1% vs 7.3%) and homes owned outright (38.8% vs 18.3%).
