5108, SA 5121, SA

Postcode 5108 and postcode 5121 are neighbouring areas with very different layouts. Postcode 5108 is a large, very walkable area where 32.8% of people use another language at home and 33.7% of households rent. In contrast, postcode 5121 is mostly car-dependent and more residential; 98.5% of homes are separate houses and 36.2% are owned outright. Access to resources and job skills is also far higher in postcode 5121.

Both areas are about the same as the national figure when it comes to the share of people using a language other than English at home. They also share similar rates of volunteering and a similar proportion of people living alone. While they share these traits, the gap in language diversity has widened since 2011, and the difference in home ownership has narrowed over the same period.
