2318, NSW 2319, NSW

Postcode 2318 and postcode 2319 are nearby areas in New South Wales with very different profiles. Postcode 2318 is wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $1,844 and 21.2% of homes earning over $3,000 a week. It is also younger and more academic, with far more residents completing Year 12 (43.2%) and a higher share of adults with bachelor degrees. In contrast, postcode 2319 is much older, with a typical age of 50, and more residents live in a (somewhat walkable) environment where 98% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of a park.

The gap between these two areas has generally widened since 2011. The difference in typical household income has grown from $517 to $733, and the age gap has increased from 8 to 10 years. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas remain alike in some ways. They share similar rates of volunteering and unpaid care, and both have very low shares of people who speak a language other than English at home.
