5472, SA 5473, SA

Postcode 5473 and postcode 5472 are both sparsely populated areas of South Australia. Postcode 5473 is more likely to have larger homes, with 79% having three or more bedrooms, and it has far more one-parent families at 18.3%. It is also more walkable, with 60.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries. In contrast, postcode 5472 is more likely to have homes owned outright (57.1%) and a higher share of full-time workers at 63.2%.

These two areas have drifted further apart since 2011 in several key ways. The gap in the number of one-parent families and the difference in typical rent and mortgage payments have all widened.
