Postcode comparison ≈ 18 km apart · 7176, TAS profile · 7177, TAS profile

7176, TAS 7177, TAS

Postcode 7177 and postcode 7176 are both sparsely populated areas in Tasmania. Postcode 7177 is noticeably older, with a typical resident aged 47 and a far higher share of seniors at 28.3%, compared to a typical age of 40 and just 10.8% seniors in postcode 7176. This age gap is consistent with other differences; postcode 7177 has a far higher share of people living alone (31.7%) and those with long-term health conditions (37.6%). Postcode 7177 is also more walkable (mostly car-dependent) than postcode 7176 (car-dependent), with more homes within walking distance of parks, schools and groceries.

The two areas have tracked differently since 2011, with the gaps in senior population, single-person households and rental rates all widening. However, they remain very similar in other ways, such as typical personal incomes and the fact that no one in either area commutes by public transport. Both areas also have a much higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people than the national figure.
