5522, SA 5555, SA

Postcode 5522 and postcode 5555 are nearby rural areas in South Australia. Postcode 5522 is noticeably older, with a typical resident aged 62 and 43.2% of people aged 65 and over. It is also more walkable; 30.1% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, while postcode 5555 has none. In contrast, postcode 5555 has a higher rate of burglary and motor vehicle theft, and its residents generally have better access to money and resources.

This shared profile extends to their workforce, with about 54% of people in both areas working full-time.
