2035, NSW 2231, NSW

Postcode 2231 and postcode 2035 are neighbouring areas with very different residential characters. Postcode 2231 is dominated by separate houses, which make up 95.2% of homes, and three-bedroom properties are far more common here than in postcode 2035. In contrast, postcode 2035 is a much more urban environment where 41.1% of people were born overseas and 34.6% use another language at home. This area also has a more highly qualified workforce, with 39.3% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, compared to 12.2% in postcode 2231.

Both areas share a similar typical weekly household income of around $2,150. While they track closely on earnings, they have moved further apart in other ways since 2011. The gap in the share of people born overseas and those who work from home has widened, and postcode 2035 has seen a rise in people living alone. This contrast is also clear in their walkability; postcode 2035 is a walker's paradise, while postcode 2231 is only somewhat walkable.
