2287, NSW 2307, NSW

Postcode 2287 and postcode 2307 are neighbouring areas in New South Wales, but they differ markedly in wealth and housing. Postcode 2287 is a more affluent area, where 20.4% of households earn $3,000 or more a week compared to just 10.2% in postcode 2307. This is reflected in the housing stock; postcode 2287 has a far higher share of separate houses (84.3% versus 69.7%) and larger homes, with 80.6% of dwellings having three or more bedrooms compared to 67.0% in postcode 2307.

These gaps in household income and home size have both widened since 2011. Despite these trends, the two areas share several similarities, such as nearly identical typical weekly rents around $400 and similar proportions of people who identify as having no religion. They also both have a high number of recent arrivals from overseas, though this is even more pronounced in postcode 2307, where 31.4% of residents arrived recently.
