Postcode comparison ≈ 37 km apart · 7216, TAS profile · 7265, TAS profile

7216, TAS 7265, TAS

Postcode 7216 and postcode 7265 are nearby Tasmanian areas with very different profiles. Postcode 7216 is far older, with a typical resident aged 57 and 34.4% of the population aged 65 and over. It is more developed for pedestrians, with a walkability score of 2.4 (mostly car-dependent) and far more people living alone (36.6%). In contrast, postcode 7265 is sparsely populated and more rural, where 40.9% of workers are in agriculture, forestry and fishing. It has a younger feel, with children under 15 making up 18.0% of the population and a higher share of homes with three or more bedrooms (82.1%).

Both areas share a very similar typical weekly personal income of around $490. They are also alike in that almost no one uses public transport to commute. While they share these economic traits, some gaps are shifting; the age difference between them has narrowed since 2011, though the gap in the number of seniors has widened. Postcode 7216 remains more connected, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of health services (25.8%) and groceries (24.6%), whereas these services are not walkable for anyone in postcode 7265.
