Postcode comparison ≈ 14 km apart · 5232, SA profile · 5234, SA profile

5232, SA 5234, SA

Postcode 5234 and postcode 5232 are two nearby areas in South Australia with very different profiles. Residents are far older in postcode 5232, where the typical age is 52 compared to 43 in postcode 5234. This older population in postcode 5232 is linked to a more affluent feel, with a far higher share of homes owned outright (53.1% compared to 40.5%) and a far higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (32.9% versus 19.3%). In contrast, postcode 5234 is more walkable, as it is mostly car-dependent while postcode 5232 is simply car-dependent, and typical weekly rents are far higher in postcode 5234 at $320, compared to just $120 in postcode 5232.

Both areas share a very similar profile when it comes to the proportion of people with no religion, with each sitting at around 56%. However, other gaps have shifted over time; the difference in typical age has widened since 2011, and the gap in home ownership has also grown. While both areas are now more similar in terms of how many people have moved recently, postcode 5232 has seen a widening lead in the share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher.
