Postcode comparison ≈ 66 km apart · 5653, SA profile · 5670, SA profile

5653, SA 5670, SA

Postcode 5670 and postcode 5653 are both sparsely populated areas of South Australia. Postcode 5670 is much older, with 21.9% of people aged 65 and over compared to just 6.1% in postcode 5653. This higher own-age profile is consistent with a higher rate of health conditions (33.2% versus 22.7%) and more homes owned outright, at 53.4% compared to 36.7%. Postcode 5653 is more focused on work and transport, with 73.5% of people employed full-time and significantly more homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport.

The gap in the proportion of seniors has widened since 2016, growing from 4.1% to 15.8%. Despite this, both areas share some traits, such as a total absence of people who speak little or no English and no one commuting by public transport. They also sit near the national figure for overall advantage, though postcode 5653 has a higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents at 10.6% compared to 4.7% in postcode 5670.
