2415, NSW 2423, NSW

Postcode 2423 and postcode 2415 are two nearby areas in New South Wales with very different levels of accessibility. Postcode 2423 is much more walkable, with 37.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a '15-minute-city' and 43.4% near public transport, compared to just 17.9% and 14.8% in postcode 2415. Postcode 2423 also has more residents who are older, with a typical age of 55 and a larger share of people aged 65 and over (30.9% compared to 22.6%). In contrast, postcode 2415 has a higher typical weekly household income of $1,366, which is $326 more than the $1,040 typical in postcode 2423.

The gap in typical household income has widened since 2011. Despite this, the two areas share some similarities, such as having almost identical proportions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents (5.8% in postcode 2423 and 6.8% in postcode 2415). Both areas also have very few people who speak little or no English and almost no one who commutes by public transport. While postcode 2423 has more public transport stops and departures, both areas remain far from the national figure for typical weekly incomes.
