5039, SA 5050, SA

Postcode 5039 and postcode 5050 are neighbouring areas in Greater Adelaide with very different housing and social profiles. Postcode 5039 is a younger, more transient hub where 33.8% of households rent and 23.8% of people use a language other than English at home. In contrast, postcode 5050 is an older area where residents are far more likely to own their homes outright (41.7%) and live in large, separate houses. This difference extends to local services, with postcode 5039 having far more public transport and a much higher proportion of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services.

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in some ways while growing closer in others. The age gap has widened, with residents in postcode 5050 now far older than those in postcode 5039. However, the gap in the share of recent overseas arrivals and the number of people living alone has narrowed. Despite these trends, the two areas remain very similar in terms of typical weekly personal incomes, which sit around $810 to $818.
