5118, SA 5350, SA

Postcode 5118 is a developed area with a population of over 19,000, while postcode 5350 is sparsely populated with just 553 residents. These two nearby areas differ sharply in their layout and home lives. Postcode 5118 is somewhat walkable, with a high share of renters (21.5%) and one-parent families (15.5%).
