Postcode comparison ≈ 3.5 km apart · 2223, NSW profile · 2225, NSW profile

2223, NSW 2225, NSW

Postcode 2223 and postcode 2225 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very different housing and social profiles. Postcode 2223 is far more diverse, with 32% of people born overseas and 34% using another language at home. It is also more accessible, with a walkability score that makes it a walker's paradise and far more homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services. In contrast, postcode 2225 is wealthier and more residential; 92.5% of homes have three or more bedrooms, and the typical weekly household income is $3,204, which is well higher than the $2,229 seen in postcode 2223.

Both areas share a similar typical resident age of 40 and have nearly identical rates of full-time employment. These core similarities remain even as other gaps widen. Since 2011, the difference in typical household income has grown, and postcode 2223 has become even more distinct in its cultural diversity and higher proportion of renters compared to postcode 2225.
