2295, NSW 2300, NSW

Postcode 2300 and postcode 2295 are neighbouring areas with very different living patterns. Postcode 2300 is a walker's paradise where most people live in flats or apartments and 53.4% rent their homes. It is highly educated, with 43.5% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, postcode 2295 is much more suburban, with 90% of homes being separate houses and far more people owning their homes outright (41.7%). This area has a much older population, with 26.9% aged 65 and over, compared to 16.8% in postcode 2300.

Several gaps between these neighbours have narrowed since 2011, such as the difference in university qualifications and the share of people who have moved recently. Despite these shifts, the two areas remain similar in a few ways. They have nearly identical unemployment rates and typical weekly rents. Both are also well-served by nature, with almost every home within a 10-minute walk of a park.
