2009, NSW 2039, NSW

Postcode 2009 and postcode 2039 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different housing and cultural profiles. Postcode 2009 is far more diverse, with 52.1% of people born overseas and 39.9% using a language other than English at home. It is dominated by apartments, with 93.7% of homes being flats and 61.7% of households renting. In contrast, postcode 2039 has more family-style living, with 47.7% of homes having three or more bedrooms and 24.5% being separate houses. Pay is also notably higher in postcode 2039, where 50.6% of households earn $3,000 or more a week, compared to 40.0% in postcode 2009.

Both areas sit near the national figure for people aged 65 and over, at around 13%. They are also equally well-placed for daily needs, with almost every home within a 15-minute walk of a park and a school. Over time, the gaps between them have generally widened; the difference in overseas births and high weekly incomes has grown since 2011. However, the age gap has narrowed slightly, as the typical resident in postcode 2009 is 37 and in postcode 2039 is 40.
