5236, SA 5241, SA

Postcode 5236 and postcode 5241 are nearby South Australian areas with very different levels of accessibility. Postcode 5241 is somewhat walkable, while postcode 5236 is car-dependent and has no public transport stops. This difference is reflected in the residents' incomes and origins; postcode 5241 has a far higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (15.1% compared to 5.1%), while postcode 5236 has a far higher share of recent overseas arrivals (17.2% compared to 1.9%).

Both areas are very similar when it comes to daily life, with nearly identical numbers of people per home and a similar share of residents needing help with daily activities. They also both have a similar level of access to money and resources. However, some gaps are changing; the difference in the share of people with no religion has widened, and the lead for de facto relationships has flipped in favour of postcode 5236 since 2011.
