5007, SA 5009, SA

Postcode 5007 and postcode 5009 are neighbouring areas in Greater Adelaide with very different housing and social profiles. Postcode 5007 is a more transient, urban hub where 50.2% of households rent and 53.4% of people moved in during the last five years. It has a younger population, with a typical age of 35, and a much higher share of university-educated adults at 38.6%. In contrast, postcode 5009 is more residential, with far more separate houses (72.7%) and larger homes; 69.4% of dwellings have three or more bedrooms compared to 50.3% in postcode 5007.

Daily life in both areas shares several commonalities, including very similar typical weekly household incomes and unemployment rates around 5.4% to 5.8%. They also have almost identical proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents and people who speak little or no English. While they share these basics, other gaps are widening; the difference in the share of people with no religion has grown to 15.3%, and the divide in home ownership has increased since 2011.
