2211, NSW 2234, NSW

Postcode 2234 and postcode 2211 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different profiles. Postcode 2234 is a wealthier area where 42.9% of households earn $3,000 or more a week, and it has a high share of large homes, with 95.4% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, postcode 2211 has a much more diverse population, with 36.0% of people born overseas and 41.9% using a language other than English at home, compared to 20.0% and 18.2% in postcode 2234.

Both areas sit near the national figure for overall advantage. They also share similar rates of people working from home, around 38%, and have almost identical proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents at 1.2%.
