5038, SA 5044, SA

Postcode 5038 and postcode 5044 are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different profiles. Postcode 5038 is much younger, with a typical resident aged 36 compared to 47 in postcode 5044. It is also far more diverse, with 34.0% of people born overseas and 32.1% using a language other than English at home, while those figures are 19.1% and 8.7% in postcode 5044. These differences extend to housing and security; postcode 5038 has a much higher share of renters (38.5%) and a significantly higher recorded offence rate, while postcode 5044 has more homes owned outright (38.5%) and a much lower crime rate.

Both areas sit near the national average for overall advantage. They also share similar household sizes, with an average of 2.3 people per home, and nearly identical rates of full-time employment. However, the gaps between them are often growing. The difference in typical age has widened from 7 to 11 years since 2011, and the gap in overseas births has also increased, now standing at 15 percentage points.
