2162, NSW 2165, NSW

Postcode 2165 and postcode 2162 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct profiles. Postcode 2165 is far more diverse and rental-heavy, with 61.2% of people born overseas and 48.6% of households renting. It also has a far higher share of people who speak little or no English (26.0%). In contrast, postcode 2162 has a higher share of separate houses (72.5%) and a more qualified workforce, with 16.4% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 12.0% in postcode 2165.

These two areas have tracked in different directions since 2011, with the gaps in overseas birth, rental rates, and education levels all widening. Despite this, they share several core traits, such as a typical weekly rent of $400 and the same number of people per home (3.2). Both areas are far above the national figure for people using another language at home, though this specific gap has narrowed over the last decade.
