2039, NSW 2047, NSW

Postcode 2047 and postcode 2039 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with similar levels of high overall advantage. There are notable differences in their social and economic makeup; postcode 2039 has a much higher share of people with no religion (53.9% compared to 35.3% in postcode 2047) and more adults with a bachelor degree or higher (54.6% versus 46.0%). Postcode 2039 also has a higher proportion of people earning $2,000 or more a week (39.5%) compared to postcode 2047 (31.3%).

These two areas have tracked closely since 2011, though some gaps are shifting. While the difference in the share of people who have completed Year 12 has narrowed, the gap in the number of people working from home has widened. They share many similarities, such as nearly identical rates of unemployment and the same high score for education and job skills. Both areas are far above the national figure for high weekly incomes and high levels of tertiary education.
