2527, NSW 2533, NSW

Postcode 2527 and postcode 2533 are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with very different resident profiles. Postcode 2527 is much younger, with a typical age of 35, compared to 48 in postcode 2533. This age gap is reflected in the families; children under 15 are well higher in postcode 2527 (21.0% versus 16.4%), and more adults there are working or looking for work. In contrast, postcode 2533 has a much higher share of retirees, with 27.8% of people aged 65 and over compared to just 15.1% in postcode 2527. Postcode 2533 also has far more people with bachelor degrees (29.8% versus 13.3%) and a higher share of homes owned outright (47.5% versus 29.9%).

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in several ways. The age gap has widened, and the difference in home ownership and university qualifications has grown. Despite these diverging trends, the areas remain similar in other ways. They share almost identical typical weekly household incomes (around $1,800 to $1,900) and similar rates of people providing unpaid care. Both areas also have the same small share of people who speak little or no English, at around 0.4% to 0.7%.
