5606, SA 5632, SA

Postcode 5606 and postcode 5632 are two very different South Australian areas. Postcode 5606 is a larger population centre where residents are far older, with a typical age of 41 and 21.2% aged 65 and over. In contrast, postcode 5632 is sparsely populated and much younger, with a typical age of 32 and a far higher share of children under 15 at 31.2%. There are also strong differences in wealth and work; postcode 5632 has far more high-earning households (23.9% earning $3,000+ a week) and people working full-time, while postcode 5606 has a much higher share of renters at 33.8%.

Since 2011, the gap between these two areas has generally widened across most measures, including age and income. They do share a few similarities, such as having almost no residents who speak little or no English. However, their daily environments differ greatly, with postcode 5606 being somewhat walkable and postcode 5632 being car-dependent. This reflects their different roles, with postcode 5606 having more retail and health workers, while agriculture is the main industry in postcode 5632.
