Postcode comparison ≈ 2.0 km apart · 2045, NSW profile · 2046, NSW profile

2045, NSW 2046, NSW

Postcode 2046 and postcode 2045 are neighbouring areas with very different housing and school profiles. Postcode 2045 is dominated by separate houses, with 79.7% of homes being detached, while postcode 2046 has many more flats and apartments. This is reflected in the home sizes; 81.7% of homes in postcode 2045 have three or more bedrooms, compared to just 55.0% in postcode 2046. Renting is also far more common in postcode 2046, where 33.6% of households rent, versus 17.1% in postcode 2045. Education services differ too, as postcode 2046 has far larger schools on average (569 students) and a far larger total number of enrolments (3,980) than postcode 2045.

Since 2011, the gap in housing types and rental rates has widened, though the difference in the typical age of residents has narrowed. Despite these shifts, the two areas remain very similar in other ways. Both have nearly identical proportions of adults with a bachelor degree (around 38%) and very similar typical weekly rents. They also share a similar distance to the city and a similar percentage of children under 15.
