5169, SA 5170, SA

Postcode 5169 and postcode 5170 are neighbouring areas in South Australia with very different characters. Postcode 5169 is a larger, somewhat walkable area with a younger population—the typical resident is 37—and 20.8% of people are children under 15. It has much more accessibility, with 72.9% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 68.4% near a school. In contrast, postcode 5170 is mostly car-dependent and far older, with a typical age of 46. It is also more likely to be owned outright, with 38.7% of homes held without a mortgage compared to 24.1% in postcode 5169.

These two areas are very similar in how they live day to day, with nearly identical rates of one-parent families, typical weekly rents around $340, and about 2.5 people per home. While they share these commonalities, other gaps are widening. The age difference has grown to 9 years since 2011, and the gap in outright home ownership has more than doubled over the same period. Both areas sit far above the national figure for people with no religion.
