2222, NSW 2223, NSW

Postcode 2223 and postcode 2222 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different profiles. Postcode 2223 is wealthier and more residential, with a typical family income of $2,699 per week and 66.1% of homes having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, postcode 2222 is much more multicultural; 47.9% of its residents were born overseas, compared to 32.0% in postcode 2223. Postcode 2222 also has a higher proportion of apartments and more people who speak a language other than English at home (51.9% versus 34.0%).

Since 2011, the gaps between these two neighbours have shifted in various directions. The income gap has widened, and postcode 2223 has seen its share of people working from home rise much faster than postcode 2222. However, the difference in the share of people using other languages at home has narrowed. Both areas remain very similar in some ways, such as having nearly identical rates of unemployment and roughly the same number of people per home.
