5654, SA 5655, SA

Postcode 5654 and postcode 5655 are both sparsely populated areas in South Australia. Postcode 5654 has a noticeably older typical resident (46 years) and a higher share of people living alone at 36.4%. It also has a higher typical family income of $1,843 per week, compared to $1,268 in postcode 5655. In contrast, postcode 5655 has a higher proportion of large homes with three or more bedrooms (93.5%) and a higher share of children under 15 at 29.2%.

These two areas have tracked differently since 2011, with the gap in typical family income widening significantly. Despite these shifts, they share a similar level of overall advantage and typical household incomes. Both areas are very similar in their lack of language diversity, with no residents using a language other than English at home, a figure that sits well below the national average.
