2039, NSW 2040, NSW

Postcode 2040 and postcode 2039 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with a high proportion of university-educated residents. Postcode 2040 is more family-oriented, with a larger number of school enrolments and far more separate houses at 40.9% compared to 24.5% in postcode 2039. Postcode 2039 is wealthier, with a higher share of people earning $2,000 or more a week (39.5% versus 30.9%) and more adults with a bachelor degree or higher (54.6% versus 48.2%).

Everyday life is very similar in both places, as they share almost identical rates of volunteering and home ownership.
