Postcode comparison ≈ 23 km apart · 7026, TAS profile · 7170, TAS profile

7026, TAS 7170, TAS

Postcode 7170 and postcode 7026 are nearby Tasmanian areas with very different profiles. Postcode 7170 is a more affluent and educated area, where 27.2% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher and 32.7% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. It is also better connected, with far more public transport stops and a much shorter drive time to the city. In contrast, postcode 7026 is more remote, with a typical walk to the nearest transport stop taking 64 minutes, and a much lower share of adults finishing Year 12 (37.3%).

Daily life in both places shares many similarities, including nearly identical rates of full-time employment and a similar proportion of children under 15. Both areas also have about the same number of people providing unpaid care and roughly the same share of residents who have moved in the last five years. However, the gap in household income has widened since 2011, while the difference in school completion has narrowed slightly over the same period.
