6054, WA 6103, WA

Postcode 6054 and postcode 6103 are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with very different housing and demographic profiles. Postcode 6054 is more established and family-oriented, with 79.2% of homes being separate houses and a much higher share of three-bedroom-plus homes (82.5%). In contrast, postcode 6103 has a much more transient and diverse population; 53.1% of households rent, and 41.3% of residents were born overseas. This higher overseas birth rate is consistent with a much higher share of people using a language other than English at home (31.4%) and a higher proportion of adults with a bachelor degree or higher (32.3%).

Since 2011, the gap between these two areas has widened across several key measures. The difference in renting rates and the proportion of people born overseas have both increased over time. Despite these drifting trends, the two areas remain very similar in their typical weekly household incomes, which sit around $1,600 to $1,700, and both have an overall advantage score near the national average.
