2016, NSW 2043, NSW

Postcode 2016 and postcode 2043 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct profiles. Postcode 2043 has a notably higher typical weekly household income of $3,020 compared to $2,145 in postcode 2016. It also has a more qualified workforce, with 62.4% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, whereas 49.1% do in postcode 2016. In contrast, postcode 2016 is more reliant on public transport; it has a far higher share of homes with no motor vehicle (39.9% compared to 25.2%) and far more weekly public transport departures per 1,000 people.

Everyday life in both places is very similar in terms of accessibility. Every home in both areas is within a 10-minute walk of public transport, and both have an identical score for the number of amenity types within a 15-minute walk. While they share these urban features, some gaps are widening. The difference in typical personal income has grown since 2011, and the gap in the share of people who identify as having no religion has also increased.
