Postcode comparison ≈ 30 km apart · 7026, TAS profile · 7120, TAS profile

7026, TAS 7120, TAS

Postcode 7120 and postcode 7026 are two nearby Tasmanian areas with very different profiles. Postcode 7120 is far older, with a typical resident aged 52, and it has a much higher share of people living alone (32.6%) and homes owned outright (46.9%). In contrast, postcode 7026 is younger and more connected, with far more public transport stops and a higher share of residents working or looking for work (62.2%).

The age gap between these two areas has widened since 2011, growing from no difference to a 13-year gap. Despite this, they share some common ground, such as having similar proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents and almost identical school sizes. Both areas also sit near the national figure for overall advantage, though postcode 7026 has more large homes and better access to walking-distance amenities like parks and schools.
