2749, NSW 2753, NSW

Postcode 2753 and postcode 2749 are neighbouring areas with similar populations, but they offer different lifestyles. Postcode 2749 is more family-oriented, with a much higher share of children under 15 (22.9% compared to 17.1% in postcode 2753) and a far higher proportion of large homes with three or more bedrooms (94.4% versus 80.5%). Postcode 2749 also has much better access to local amenities, with far more homes within a 15-minute walk of parks, schools and health services. In contrast, postcode 2753 is older and more diverse, with a higher share of seniors and more recent overseas arrivals (10.8% compared to 4.1%).

While the gap in the share of children is widening, other differences are narrowing. For example, the difference in home ownership and the typical age of residents have both shrunk since 2011. These two areas share a similar cultural makeup, with nearly the same percentage of people born overseas and those who use a language other than English at home. They also track closely on financial markers, such as typical weekly family income and monthly mortgage payments, which are almost identical in both places.
