2791, NSW 2797, NSW

Postcode 2797 and postcode 2791 are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Postcode 2791 is notably more affluent, with a typical weekly income of $1,937 and 15.4% of people earning $2,000 or more a week, compared to 7.7% in postcode 2797. A much larger share of people in postcode 2791 live alone (38.2% compared to 20.8% in postcode 2797), and 52.7% of its homes are owned outright. Postcode 2797 has a higher proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents at 6.7%, while postcode 2791 has more residents born overseas (8.4% against 3.9%).

Everyday life is similar in both places, as they share the same number of public transport routes and stops, and typical weekly family incomes are nearly the same.
