7008, TAS 7016, TAS

Postcode 7008 and postcode 7016 are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Postcode 7008 is a more urban, affluent hub where 41.8% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher and the typical family earns $2,211 a week. In contrast, postcode 7016 is more rural and has a much stronger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander presence at 13.0%. Postcode 7016 also has a higher proportion of one-parent families, at 28.7%, compared to 12.0% in postcode 7008.

Many of the gaps between these two areas have widened since 2011, particularly in education and income. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas share some common ground; they have very similar rates of people needing help with daily activities (around 7%) and a similar share of households that rent. Both areas also sit near the national figure for the proportion of people living in homes with no motor vehicle.
