6004, WA 6103, WA

Postcode 6004 and postcode 6103 are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth that offer very different living environments. Postcode 6004 is a walker's paradise with a high proportion of flats and apartments, where 55.6% of people were born overseas and 46.9% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, postcode 6103 has more separate houses and a higher share of three-bedroom homes, with 41.3% of residents born overseas and 32.3% of adults holding a degree.

Daily life is similar in both places regarding basic access; every home in both areas is within a 10-minute walk of public transport and a 15-minute walk of a park. Both areas also have similar unemployment rates and a similar share of residents aged 65 and over.
