2339, NSW 2381, NSW

Postcode 2381 and postcode 2339 are two rural New South Wales areas with similar overall populations. Postcode 2381 has a far higher proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at 17.6%, compared to 6.8% in postcode 2339. There are also stark differences in local amenities; for example, 31.7% of homes in postcode 2339 are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, while postcode 2381 has no homes with that level of access. In contrast, postcode 2381 is more walkable for other needs, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of a park (48.1%) and a school (33.9%).

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted apart across several measures. The gaps in religious affiliation and the share of recent overseas arrivals have both widened, with postcode 2339 seeing a much higher increase in new arrivals from overseas. Despite these shifts, the areas remain very similar in some core ways. They share almost identical typical weekly household incomes, and the percentage of people born overseas is nearly the same in both places, sitting at around 4.4%.
