7466, TAS 7468, TAS

Postcode 7468 and postcode 7466 are two nearby areas in Tasmania, though they differ greatly in population and demographics. Postcode 7466 is sparsely populated and has a much older community, where the typical resident is 59 and 46.9% are seniors. In contrast, postcode 7468 is younger, with a typical age of 40. Financial gaps are also wide; typical weekly family income is far higher in postcode 7468 at $1,908, compared to $900 in postcode 7466. Postcode 7468 also has more infrastructure, with a typical home being within a 15-minute walk of a park or health services, while postcode 7466 is car-dependent.

Both areas share a very similar level of overall advantage and similar rates of overseas birth.

They also both see a small share of people who speak little or no English, with figures sitting well below the national average.
