5580, SA 5581, SA

Postcode 5581 and postcode 5580 are two sparsely populated areas in South Australia. Postcode 5581 is an older community where the typical resident is 65 and half of all people are aged 65 or over. In contrast, postcode 5580 has a much younger feel, with 18.2% of people under 15 and a typical age of 54. This difference is reflected in the home life of each area; postcode 5580 has far more couples with children, while postcode 5581 has more couples without. Postcode 5581 is also more walkable (mostly car-dependent), with 61.6% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services, whereas postcode 5580 is car-dependent with no homes within that distance of these services.

Both areas sit near the national figure for people providing unpaid care. Beyond this, they share similar levels of home ownership, with around 61% of homes owned outright in both places. While the two areas are effectively alike in their share of university graduates, the gap in the working population is narrowing; 52.5% of adults in postcode 5580 are working or looking for work, compared to 37.5% in postcode 5581.
