2761, NSW 2762, NSW

Postcode 2761 and postcode 2762 are neighbouring areas in Greater Sydney with distinct profiles. Postcode 2762 is a high-earning hub where 46.1% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, compared with 25.1% in postcode 2761. This higher education level helps explain why postcode 2762 has far more people earning $2,000 or more a week (19.7% versus 8.2%) and a much higher share of households earning $3,000 or more weekly (41.3% versus 28.2%). In contrast, postcode 2761 is much more walkable, with 79.5% of homes within a 15-minute walk of local services, while only 34.1% of homes in postcode 2762 share this access.

Since 2011, the two areas have diverged significantly in several ways. The gap in working-from-home rates has widened to 19.2%, and the lead in university qualifications has flipped to favour postcode 2762. Despite these shifts, both areas remain very similar in some respects. They both have a high proportion of people born overseas and an almost identical number of people per home, typically around 3.2 to 3.4.
