2134, NSW 2140, NSW

Postcode 2140 and postcode 2134 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with similar population sizes. Postcode 2140 is more affluent, with a typical weekly personal income of $913 compared to $707 in postcode 2134. This higher income is consistent with a more qualified workforce, as 49.2% of adults in postcode 2140 hold a bachelor degree or higher, compared to 39.7% in postcode 2134. Postcode 2134 is more likely to have people who speak little or no English (19.3%) and has a much higher share of people with no religion (43.8%) than postcode 2140 (28.8%).
