2082, NSW 2084, NSW

Postcode 2082 and postcode 2084 are neighbouring areas in New South Wales that differ significantly in their layout and demographics. Postcode 2082 is steeper and more densely connected, with 94.3% of homes being separate houses. It is a younger-feeling area where children under 15 make up 21.1% of the population. In contrast, postcode 2084 is older, with a typical resident aged 47 and 23.4% of people aged 65 and over. Postcode 2084 also has much better access to services, including 9.06 schools per 1,000 children and a far higher number of walkable amenities.

These two areas share a very similar social profile, with nearly identical rates of volunteering, typical weekly incomes, and the share of people who speak a language other than English at home. While they are alike in these respects, some gaps have grown since 2011. The difference in typical age has widened to five years, and the gap in home ownership has increased, with homes owned outright now 4.8% more common in postcode 2084.
