2031, NSW 2033, NSW

Postcode 2031 and postcode 2033 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different financial profiles. Postcode 2031 is much wealthier, with a typical weekly personal income of $1,373 compared to $943 in postcode 2033. This gap is reflected in the share of households earning $3,000 or more a week, which is well higher in postcode 2031 at 41.1%. In contrast, postcode 2033 is far more linguistically diverse, with 38.7% of people using a language other than English at home, compared to 19.5% in postcode 2031.

Both areas share a very similar residential feel, with an equal number of people per home and almost identical rates of volunteering and long-term health conditions. While they are similar in these aspects, the financial gap between them has widened since 2011, particularly regarding typical incomes and the number of people earning over $2,000 a week. Both areas remain well above the national figure for university qualifications, though postcode 2031 has a higher share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher at 51.7%.
