5131, SA 5233, SA

Postcode 5233 and postcode 5131 are two nearby areas in South Australia with very different levels of accessibility and wealth. Postcode 5233 is more walkable, with 45% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a city center and many more residents within walking distance of schools, health services, and groceries. In contrast, postcode 5131 is more car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of a school or health clinic. Postcode 5131 is also wealthier, where the typical weekly household income is $2,243, which is well higher than the $1,787 seen in postcode 5233.

Both areas sit near the national average for overall advantage. They also share similar proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and a similar lack of recent overseas arrivals. While they have much in common, some gaps are growing. The difference in typical household income and the share of people with bachelor degrees have both widened since 2011, as postcode 5131 has moved further ahead in these measures.
