Postcode comparison ≈ 12 km apart · 6034, WA profile · 6037, WA profile

6034, WA 6037, WA

Postcode 6037 and postcode 6034 are nearby Western Australian areas with similar total populations, though they differ in their resident profiles. Postcode 6037 has a far older typical resident at 39, compared to just 29 in postcode 6034. This younger age in postcode 6034 is consistent with its higher share of people born overseas (40.7% compared to 28.3% in postcode 6037) and a much higher proportion of adults working or looking for work (74.7% against 58.3%). Postcode 6037 is more likely to have homes owned outright, with a 27.0% share compared to only 7.3% in postcode 6034.

Both areas sit near the national average for overall advantage. They also share similar housing styles, as nearly every home in both places is a separate house. While these areas are alike in some ways, other gaps are shifting; the difference in typical age has narrowed since 2016, but the gap in people caring for children unpaid has widened. Postcode 6034 is more walkable, with a typical walk to the nearest stop of 4 minutes, whereas in postcode 6037 that walk is far higher at 16 minutes.
