6000, WA 6152, WA

Postcode 6152 and postcode 6000 are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with very different housing and demographics. Postcode 6000 is a high-density hub where nearly 80% of homes are flats or apartments, while postcode 6152 has a more suburban feel with 52.5% separate houses. This shift in housing is reflected in the residents; postcode 6000 has a much younger typical age of 33 and a very high proportion of renters (65.3%). In contrast, postcode 6152 is noticeably older, with a typical age of 38 and far more people aged 65 and over (20.1% compared to 7.5% in postcode 6000).

Everyday life in both areas shares a similar level of typical weekly household income, around $1,900, and they both have similar overall advantage scores. However, the way people live differs, as the gap in rental rates and the number of people living alone has widened since 2011. Postcode 6000 is a walker's paradise with far more public transport departures and a higher share of recent overseas arrivals, while postcode 6152 has more families and a higher share of homes owned outright.
