2143, NSW 2144, NSW

Postcode 2144 and postcode 2143 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different layouts. Postcode 2144 is a dense, highly walkable area where 85.2% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, while postcode 2143 is more car-dependent, with only 18.3% having that same access. Postcode 2144 is also more diverse and international, with 64.3% of people born overseas and a far higher share of recent arrivals from overseas (31.2%) compared to postcode 2143 (13.0%). In contrast, postcode 2143 has far more separate houses (67.8% versus 42.0%) and a higher share of people working from home (29.0% versus 17.0%).
