6560, WA 6567, WA

Postcode 6560 is more connected, with many more public transport stops and a higher share of homes within a 15-minute walk of schools (33.2%) and parks (30.7%). It also has a higher proportion of one-parent families (18.2% compared to 8.1% in postcode 6567). In contrast, postcode 6567 is more remote, with a far longer drive time to the city (207 minutes), and residents are far older, with a typical age of 54.

Since 2011, some of the gaps between these two areas have narrowed.
