Postcode comparison ≈ 15 km apart · 7052, TAS profile · 7155, TAS profile

7052, TAS 7155, TAS

Postcode 7052 and postcode 7155 are nearby Tasmanian areas with very different lifestyles. Postcode 7052 is a somewhat walkable hub where 64.1% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 14.8% of residents arrived recently from overseas. In contrast, postcode 7155 is car-dependent, with a much older population; its typical resident is 51, which is 9 years older than the typical resident in postcode 7052. This age gap has widened since 2011, as has the difference in renting, which is far higher in postcode 7052 at 21.5% compared to 10.2% in postcode 7155.

These two areas share a similar level of general education and job skills. They also have nearly identical rates of volunteering, people providing unpaid care, and people living alone. While they are alike in these respects, they have drifted apart in other ways. The gap in overseas arrivals and the difference in the proportion of residents with university degrees have both grown over the last decade.
