Postcode comparison ≈ 28 km apart · 2344, NSW profile · 2345, NSW profile

2344, NSW 2345, NSW

Postcode 2345 and postcode 2344 are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Postcode 2345 is more walkable and connected, with 46.5% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport and far more transport stops per person. It also has a larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 10.2%, which is well above the national figure. In contrast, postcode 2344 has more people with Year 12 qualifications (43.5%) and a higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (17.1%).

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in several ways. The gap in typical resident age has widened, with people in postcode 2344 becoming noticeably older than those in postcode 2345. Gaps have also grown in the number of people working from home and the share of high-income households. Despite these shifts, they remain very similar in other ways, such as having almost identical shares of adults with a university degree and similar typical weekly personal incomes.
