5480, SA 5523, SA

Postcode 5523 and postcode 5480 are two nearby areas in South Australia with different levels of accessibility and crime rates. Postcode 5480 is much more walkable, with 55.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a "15-minute-city" and far more people living within a short walk of parks, health services, and groceries. In contrast, postcode 5523 has far higher recorded offences per 100,000 people (1,543 compared to 790) and a crime rate that has risen much more over the last five years. Postcode 5523 also has a higher share of high earners, with 12.6% of households earning $3,000 or more a week.

Everyday life is very similar in both places, as they share the same typical resident age of 49 and nearly identical shares of children under 15. Both areas also have a similar percentage of people who do not follow a religion and a nearly identical typical weekly personal income of around $590. While some gaps are closing, such as the difference in the share of large three-plus bedroom homes, other gaps have widened since 2011, including the difference in high weekly earnings and the share of people in de facto relationships.
