2450, NSW 2456, NSW

Postcode 2450 and postcode 2456 are nearby New South Wales areas with very different layouts. Postcode 2450 is much more connected, with far more public transport routes and a higher share of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries (51.2%), health services (40.0%), and schools (51.6%). In contrast, postcode 2456 is dominated by separate houses, which are found in 90.0% of homes compared to 71.9% in postcode 2450.

Both areas have almost identical shares of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at 5.6%.
