6150, WA 6164, WA

Postcode 6164 and postcode 6150 are neighbouring areas in Greater Perth with very different profiles. Postcode 6164 is much younger, with a typical resident aged 34 and 22.2% of people being children, compared to a typical age of 43 and 15.1% children in postcode 6150. This difference is reflected in the homes; 47.5% of people in postcode 6150 own their home outright, while only 19.6% do so in postcode 6164. Additionally, postcode 6150 is more walkable, with 96.2% of homes in a 15-minute-city walkshed compared to 60.1% in postcode 6164.
