2233, NSW 2234, NSW

Postcode 2234 and postcode 2233 are two large, nearby areas in Greater Sydney. Postcode 2234 is more diverse and better educated, with 18.2% of people using another language at home and 27.3% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. It is also wealthier, with a higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (42.9% compared to 35.6% in postcode 2233). In contrast, postcode 2233 is very walkable, while postcode 2234 is only somewhat walkable. Many more people in postcode 2233 live within a 15-minute walk of groceries (82.7% versus 41.5%).

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, with gaps in overseas birth rates and language use remaining steady. They are very alike in some ways, such as the typical weekly personal income and the number of people per home. However, some differences are growing; the gap in home ownership has widened, and the share of people with no religion is now far higher in postcode 2233.
