2219, NSW 2229, NSW

Postcode 2229 and postcode 2219 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct characters. Postcode 2219 has a much stronger multicultural profile, with 30.5% of people born overseas and 37.4% using another language at home, compared to 17.8% and 11.9% in postcode 2229. In contrast, postcode 2229 is more affluent, with a higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (35.4% versus 27.1%) and better access to essentials, as 94.3% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries compared to 72.4% in postcode 2219.

Both areas are similar in how they fit into the national picture, such as the share of people living alone in postcode 2229, which is about the same as the Australian figure. They also share a typical weekly rent of $500 and very similar rates of full-time employment. While they share these commonalities, some gaps are shifting; the difference in the share of high earners and the number of people with no religion have both widened since 2011.
