5602, SA 5603, SA

Postcode 5602 and postcode 5603 are both sparsely populated areas in South Australia. They differ most in their local amenities and social profiles; postcode 5602 is more walkable, with 40.6% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school and 48.9% near health services, whereas postcode 5603 has no homes within that distance of either. Postcode 5603 has a much higher rate of unpaid childcare at 35.2%, while postcode 5602 is older, with a typical resident aged 51 and 28.5% of people aged 65 and over.

These two areas share very similar typical weekly incomes, both around $660, and nearly identical shares of people born overseas. However, the gap in home ownership has widened since 2011, with postcode 5603 now seeing a well higher share of homes owned outright at 56.4%. This trend towards a larger divide is also seen in education, where the gap in people with a bachelor degree or higher has grown over time.
