6430, WA 6432, WA

Postcode 6430 and postcode 6432 are neighbouring areas in Western Australia with very different profiles. Postcode 6430 is more affluent and qualified, with a far higher share of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher (16.5% compared to 5.6% in postcode 6432) and more people working or looking for work. It also has larger schools and higher typical family incomes, which are $2,970 a week compared to $2,375 in postcode 6432. In contrast, postcode 6432 is more walkable, with a far higher share of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services (50.2% versus 34.6%).

Since 2011, the difference in typical personal incomes has widened, and the gap in the share of adults with university degrees has also increased.
