6104, WA 6105, WA

Postcode 6105 and postcode 6104 are neighbouring areas in Perth with similar population sizes, but they differ in their layout and makeup. Postcode 6105 is a younger area where the typical resident is 35, and it is more diverse, with 44% of people born overseas and 35.5% using another language at home. It also has more schools, with 8 within 3 km, though residents face a longer walk to the nearest transport stop, which is 22 metres compared to just 3 metres in postcode 6104.

These two neighbours have seen their differences grow since 2011. The gap in the typical age of residents has widened by 3 years, and the difference in the share of people born overseas and those using another language has also increased. Despite these shifting trends, both areas remain alike in several ways, including having similar typical weekly household incomes and about the same share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher.
