2427, NSW 2443, NSW

Postcode 2443 and postcode 2427 are two nearby areas with older populations, but they differ in layout and housing. Postcode 2427 is more compact and accessible, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of health services (76.7% compared to 43.8% in postcode 2443) and groceries (78.5% versus 52.7%). Housing also differs, as postcode 2427 has a far higher share of homes owned outright (64.9% versus 52.7%) and more large homes with three or more bedrooms (77.6% versus 65.0%).

Daily life is very similar in both places, with nearly identical typical weekly household incomes and shares of volunteers. Both areas are far older than the national figure, and this trend has continued as the gap in the number of people aged 65 and over has widened since 2011. While they share these traits, postcode 2443 remains more focused on nature and education, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of a park and a larger number of local schools.
