5043, SA 5050, SA

Postcode 5043 and postcode 5050 are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different profiles. Postcode 5043 is more transient and diverse, with 21.6% of people arriving recently from overseas and 40.5% of homes being rented. In contrast, postcode 5050 is more affluent and stable, where 41.7% of homes are owned outright and 25.5% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. Housing also differs sharply; postcode 5050 is dominated by detached houses (90.2%) and larger homes, while postcode 5043 has a much higher share of townhouses and apartments.

Everyday life in both areas shares several commonalities, as both have similar rates of full-time employment and nearly every home is within a 15-minute walk of a park. However, the gaps between them are shifting. While the difference in university qualifications has narrowed since 2011, the divide in home ownership and the share of people using a language other than English at home have both widened.
