5482, SA 5485, SA

Postcode 5485 and postcode 5482 are both sparsely populated areas in South Australia. Postcode 5482 has a much older population, with 34.6% aged 65 and over compared to 24.4% in postcode 5485. It also has a higher share of volunteers at 44.8% and more people working from home at 21.4%. In contrast, postcode 5485 is more diverse, with 13% of residents arriving from overseas recently, while postcode 5482 has none. Postcode 5485 also sees far more crime, with a recorded offence rate of 2,849 per 100,000 people, compared to 622 in postcode 5482.

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted apart in several ways. The gap in the number of people working from home has widened significantly, and the difference in the typical age of residents has also grown. Despite these shifts, they share many basics; they have almost identical typical weekly household incomes of around $1,200 and very similar housing styles, with over 95% of homes being separate houses. Both areas also sit well above the national figure for the typical age of their residents.
