2062, NSW 2089, NSW

Postcode 2089 and postcode 2062 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with different housing and family profiles. Postcode 2089 has a much higher share of renters at 52.2% and a higher proportion of people living alone (39.5%). In contrast, postcode 2062 has more family-oriented homes, with 43.6% of dwellings having three or more bedrooms and 18.5% of residents being children under 15. This is consistent with postcode 2062 having far more school enrolments (1,342) and more schools within 3 km compared to postcode 2089.

Both areas are similar in that the share of children under 15 in postcode 2062 is about the same as the national figure. They also share very similar typical weekly incomes and a nearly identical percentage of residents who completed Year 12. While they track together on these measures, some gaps are widening; the difference in high-income earners and the share of people living alone has grown since 2011.
