Postcode comparison ≈ 53 km apart · 6513, WA profile · 6574, WA profile

6513, WA 6574, WA

Postcode 6513 and postcode 6574 are both sparsely populated areas in Western Australia. Postcode 6513 has a much more family-oriented feel, with 16.7% of its people being children under 15 and 36.1% of residents providing unpaid childcare. This contrasts with postcode 6574, where children make up only 4.7% of the population and only 20.0% of people provide unpaid care. Postcode 6513 is also more accessible, as it is mostly car-dependent while postcode 6574 is car-dependent, and only postcode 6513 has any public transport stops or amenities within a short walk.

These two areas have drifted further apart since 2016, particularly as the gap in the number of children and one-parent families has widened. They do share some similarities, such as nearly identical rates of home ownership and a similar proportion of adults working or looking for work. In both places, about 48% of homes are owned outright, which is well above the national figure.
