Postcode comparison ≈ 4.6 km apart · 2104, NSW profile · 2107, NSW profile

2104, NSW 2107, NSW

Postcode 2107 and postcode 2104 are neighbouring areas with very different layouts and demographics. Postcode 2107 is more family-oriented and walkable, with a typical resident aged 47 and a high share of separate houses (86.8%) and larger homes. In contrast, postcode 2104 is far older, with a typical age of 58 and 40.6% of people aged 65 and over. This older profile is reflected in a higher number of people living alone (34.5%) and a more car-dependent environment where only 7.6% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of a 15-minute-city walkshed.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of adults working or looking for work in postcode 2107, while postcode 2104 is far below. Despite this, they share high levels of overall advantage and education, and both have similar proportions of people using other languages at home. Over time, many of the gaps between them have grown. The difference in typical weekly household income has widened to $742, and the gap in separate housing has increased significantly since 2011.
