2229, NSW 2230, NSW

Postcode 2229 and postcode 2230 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with very similar population sizes. Postcode 2229 is more family-oriented, with a well higher share of children under 15 (19.0% compared to 14.5%) and more people caring for children unpaid. This is reflected in the housing, where separate houses are far higher in postcode 2229 at 53.8% and homes with three or more bedrooms are far higher at 71.1%. In contrast, postcode 2230 has a well higher share of renters (32.9% versus 23.3%) and more people living alone (30.0% versus 24.7%).

These two areas share many traits, including very similar proportions of people born overseas and almost identical typical household incomes. While they are alike in this way, some differences are shifting. The gap in the number of separate houses and larger homes has narrowed since 2011, though postcode 2229 remains higher in both.
