2073, NSW 2075, NSW

Postcode 2075 and postcode 2073 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct profiles. Postcode 2073 is more walkable, with 92.3% of homes in a 15-minute-city walkshed compared to 76.8% in postcode 2075. It also has a higher share of university-educated adults (56.4% versus 50.8%) and more households earning $3,000 or more a week (52.6% compared to 46.9%). In contrast, postcode 2075 has a notably older population, with 21.2% of residents aged 65 and over, compared to 16.3% in postcode 2073.

Everyday life is similar in both places, as they share nearly identical rates of children under 15 and a very similar proportion of people who use another language at home. While both areas have high shares of overseas-born residents well above the national figure, this gap has narrowed since 2011. Other differences are shifting over time, with the gap in weekly household income widening as postcode 2073 becomes relatively wealthier.
