2037, NSW 2038, NSW

Postcode 2037 and postcode 2038 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct housing and population profiles. Postcode 2037 is more transient and diverse, with 37.4% of people born overseas and 25.2% using a language other than English at home. It also has a higher proportion of renters at 61.2% and more people living alone (40.4%). In contrast, postcode 2038 has more families, with a higher share of children under 15 (16.0%) and larger homes, including a far higher share of separate houses (22.8%). Postcode 2038 also sees more high earners, with 44.6% of households earning $3,000 or more per week.

Many of these gaps have widened since 2011, particularly the differences in overseas births and rental rates. Despite these shifts, the two areas remain very similar in some ways. Both have roughly the same share of people aged 65 and over, and about 56% of their workforces work from home. They also share the same top ranking for overall advantage and education and job skills, which are both rated at 10.
