2563, NSW 2566, NSW

Postcode 2566 and postcode 2563 are nearby areas in New South Wales with very different characters. Postcode 2566 is a larger, more diverse hub where 37.7% of people were born overseas and 40.5% use a language other than English at home. It is also more walkable, with 46.3% of homes in a 15-minute-city walkshed. In contrast, postcode 2563 is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with all homes being separate houses and a much higher share of renters at 53.7%.

Both areas sit near the national figure for their overall advantage score. They also share similar typical weekly personal incomes of around $734 to $788 and have nearly the same proportion of residents aged 65 and over. However, the gaps between them are often growing; the difference in the share of overseas-born residents and those using other languages at home has widened since 2011.
