6373, WA 6428, WA

Postcode 6373 and postcode 6428 are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Postcode 6373 is far more likely to have residents who finished Year 12 (60.3% compared to 37.8%) and people who volunteer (55.9% compared to 22.2%). It also has a much higher rate of people working from home, at 42.6% compared to 12.0% in postcode 6428, and typical monthly home loan payments are far higher at $1,580 compared to $542.

These gaps in working patterns and volunteering have widened since 2016. Both areas are effectively alike in that no one uses a language other than English at home and neither has any public transport stops. They also both have a very low proportion of residents born overseas compared to the national figure.
