2134, NSW 2135, NSW

Postcode 2135 and postcode 2134 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct characters. Postcode 2135 is generally wealthier, with a typical family income of $2,423 a week compared to $1,862 in postcode 2134. It also has more traditional housing, as separate houses make up 45.4% of homes, which is far higher than the 21.2% seen in postcode 2134. In contrast, postcode 2134 is more densely packed with renters (59.0%) and a higher share of people who identify as having no religion (43.8%).

They are both highly diverse, with the majority of residents born overseas and a high percentage of people using a language other than English at home, well above the national figure.
