There is nothing concrete.

I think Petunia is older though.  Lily was only about 22 (I think) 
when Harry was born.  Vernon and Petunia could aready afford a nice 
four-bedroom house.  That implies to me that Vernon was making a 
good salary and had probably been working for a few years.  I also 
assumed (for no reason I can think of)that Vernon and Petunia were 
fairly close in age.

Like I said, we have nothing conclusive at all.
