5125, SA 5131, SA

Postcode 5125 and postcode 5131 are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different characters. Postcode 5125 is a larger, somewhat walkable area where 22.7% of people live alone and 18.6% of homes are rented. In contrast, postcode 5131 is sparsely populated and car-dependent; it has a much wealthier profile, with 35.3% of households earning $3,000 or more a week compared to 24.5% in postcode 5125. This wealth is reflected in home ownership, as 50.2% of homes in postcode 5131 are owned outright, which is far higher than the 31.9% seen in postcode 5125.

Since 2011, the gaps between these two areas have generally widened. The difference in high incomes and outright home ownership has grown, and residents in postcode 5131 have become noticeably older than those in postcode 5125. Despite these diverging trends, the areas remain similar in some ways, such as their typical weekly personal incomes and the same general level of education and job skills.
