2082, NSW 2157, NSW

Postcode 2082 and postcode 2157 are nearby neighbours with very different layouts. Postcode 2082 is a more urban environment, rated as somewhat walkable, where 67.2% of homes are within 15 minutes of health services. In contrast, postcode 2157 is car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of health services and a much longer typical drive time to the city of 88 minutes. Postcode 2082 also has a more qualified workforce, with 33.7% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, compared to 23.9% in postcode 2157.

Since 2011, these two areas have drifted apart in some key ways. The gap in people with no religion has widened, and the difference in university qualifications has grown. However, they remain very similar in other areas: both have the same typical resident age of 42 and an almost identical share of people born overseas. They also share a similar level of wealth, with about 39% of households in both areas earning $3,000 or more per week.
