2007, NSW 2041, NSW

Postcode 2041 and postcode 2007 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different profiles. Postcode 2041 is much older, with a typical resident aged 43 compared to 30 in postcode 2007. This older population is reflected in the family makeup, as postcode 2041 has a far higher share of children under 15 (16.9% versus 6.6%) and people aged 65 and over (17.6% versus 6.3%). It is also wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $3,147, which is far higher than the $1,805 seen in postcode 2007. In contrast, postcode 2007 is much more diverse, with 66.2% of people born overseas and 58% using a language other than English at home.

Both areas share a high level of education and job skills, with every resident in both places scoring at the top of the scale. This common ground exists alongside a growing divide in other areas. Since 2011, the gap in typical weekly family incomes has widened, and far more people in postcode 2041 now work from home compared to postcode 2007. While both areas are fully walkable with a 100% share of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport, the way people live differs; postcode 2007 is dominated by apartments and renters, whereas postcode 2041 has more townhouses and homes owned outright.
