2134, NSW 2137, NSW

Postcode 2137 and postcode 2134 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different profiles. Postcode 2137 is an older and wealthier area, where the typical resident is 41 and 37.8% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, postcode 2134 is much younger, with a typical age of 32 and a much higher share of people born overseas (69.2% compared to 37.7% in postcode 2137). This is reflected in the homes; postcode 2137 has far more separate houses and larger homes, while postcode 2134 is dominated by rentals, with 59% of homes rented.

The gap in home ownership has widened since 2011, as postcode 2137 now has a far higher share of homes owned outright. Despite this, the two areas share some similarities, including their drive times to the city and the fact that every home in both areas is within walking distance of a park. Both also sit near the national figure for overall advantage. However, they differ in how people get around: 31.3% of homes in postcode 2134 have no motor vehicle, which is far higher than the 7.6% in postcode 2137.
