5046, SA 5158, SA

Postcode 5158 and postcode 5046 are neighbouring areas with very different lifestyles. Postcode 5158 is an affluent, family-oriented area where 95.9% of homes are separate houses and 94.3% have three or more bedrooms. In contrast, postcode 5046 is much more urban and transient; it is very walkable, with 33.4% of households renting and 44.6% of residents having moved in within the last five years. The two areas also differ sharply in safety and resources, with postcode 5046 seeing far higher rates of theft and burglary and much lower access to money and resources.

Both areas share a similar social makeup, with about 28% of people born overseas and nearly identical rates of full-time employment. They also have very similar typical weekly family incomes, which sit around $2,000. While they share these commonalities, some gaps are widening; the difference in the number of separate houses has grown since 2011, and postcode 5046 has seen a much larger increase in recent arrivals from overseas compared to postcode 5158.
