Postcode comparison ≈ 2.6 km apart · 2061, NSW profile · 2090, NSW profile

2061, NSW 2090, NSW

Postcode 2090 and postcode 2061 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct housing and family profiles. Postcode 2090 is more family-oriented, with a well higher share of children under 15 (14.6% compared to 6.3%) and more people caring for children unpaid. This is consistent with its housing, as separate houses are far higher in postcode 2090 (16.5% versus 3.3%) and homes with three or more bedrooms are also far higher (38.8% versus 25.4%). In contrast, postcode 2061 has a higher share of renters (60.1% versus 45.0%) and more people living alone (46.4% versus 37.0%).

Everyday life in both places is similar, with nearly identical typical weekly household incomes and identical typical weekly rents of $600. Both areas also have a high proportion of residents born overseas and a similar share of people who volunteer. However, some gaps are widening; the typical resident in postcode 2061 is now noticeably older than in postcode 2090, a gap that has grown since 2011. Postcode 2061 also has a far higher number of schools per 1,000 children (5.12 versus 0.51).
