2675, NSW 2878, NSW

Postcode 2675 and postcode 2878 are both rural New South Wales areas, but they differ significantly in their populations. Postcode 2675 is far more diverse, with 17.8% of people born overseas and 13.5% using another language at home, compared to just 2.8% and 1.0% in postcode 2878. There is also a large gap in housing and work; postcode 2878 has a far higher share of homes owned outright (45.9% vs 35.2%) and far more people working from home (22.6% vs 10.2%). Postcode 2878 also has a far higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 22.0%, compared to 9.9% in postcode 2675.

Since 2011, the two areas have tracked in different directions, with the gap in overseas births and language use widening while the gap in Aboriginal populations has narrowed. Despite these shifting trends, they share several similarities, such as a similar proportion of children under 15 and very similar typical weekly personal incomes. Both areas also sit well below the national figure for the share of people who completed Year 12.
