2227, NSW 2230, NSW

Postcode 2230 and postcode 2227 are neighbouring areas with very different housing styles. Postcode 2227 is more suburban, with separate houses making up 63.3% of homes and 75.5% of dwellings having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, postcode 2230 is more urban; flats or apartments are common, and separate houses make up only 38.8% of homes. This shift is reflected in the population, with postcode 2230 having a far higher share of renters (32.9%) and people living alone (30.0%).

Both areas are remarkably similar in their typical weekly household incomes, which sit around $2,200 to $2,300. They also share similar rates of overseas birth and school advantage scores. While they are alike in these ways, the gap in housing is narrowing slightly, as the difference in the share of three-plus bedroom homes has fallen from 26.3% to 23.6% since 2011.
