Postcode comparison ≈ 2.1 km apart · 2010, NSW profile · 2027, NSW profile

2010, NSW 2027, NSW

Postcode 2010 and postcode 2027 are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Postcode 2010 is a young, transient hub where the typical resident is 36 and 64% of homes are rented. It is much more diverse, with 24.8% of people arriving recently from overseas and 56.2% of residents reporting no religion. In contrast, postcode 2027 is far older, with a typical age of 46 and 28.1% of the population aged 65 or over. Residents there are more likely to own their homes outright (38.8%) and live in larger properties, with 42.7% of homes having three or more bedrooms.

Everyday life in both areas is defined by excellent accessibility, with nearly every home within a short walk of public transport, parks and schools. They also share very high levels of overall advantage and similar job skills. While they are alike in these ways, other gaps are widening; more people in postcode 2010 now live alone and have no religion compared to postcode 2027, and the difference in the share of seniors between the two areas has also grown since 2011.
