2145, NSW 2165, NSW

Postcode 2145 and postcode 2165 are two neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different economic profiles. Postcode 2145 is much wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $2,090 compared to $1,225 in postcode 2165. Educational attainment is also far higher in postcode 2145, where 37.4% of adults have a bachelor degree or higher, while just 12.0% do in postcode 2165. This gap is seen in the workforce too; adults in postcode 2145 are far more likely to be working or looking for work (58.8%) than those in postcode 2165 (34.9%).

Both areas share a high level of accessibility, with almost every home located within a 10-minute walk of public transport and a 15-minute walk of a park. They also have very similar typical weekly rents and shares of people living alone. However, the divide between them has grown over time, as gaps in typical incomes and university qualifications have widened since 2011.
