2360, NSW 2402, NSW

Postcode 2360 and postcode 2402 are two rural New South Wales areas with very different profiles. Postcode 2360 is larger and more diverse, with 24.2% of people arriving from overseas recently, compared to none in postcode 2402. It also has a higher typical weekly income of $652 and more public transport options, with 66.1% of homes within a 10-minute walk of a stop. In contrast, postcode 2402 is much older and more residential; the typical resident is 49, and half of all homes are owned outright. It also has more small-scale schooling, with far more schools per 1,000 children than postcode 2360.

The gap in typical age between these two places has widened since 2011, growing from four years to seven years.

Both areas also sit at the same low level for general education and job skills and have roughly the same share of people earning $2,000 or more a week.
