2821, NSW 2825, NSW

Postcode 2821 and postcode 2825 are both rural New South Wales areas with distinct profiles. Postcode 2821 has more public transport options, with 66.5% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a stop compared to 29.9% in postcode 2825. Postcode 2821 also has a larger share of children under 15 (22.3% versus 19.2%) and more one-parent families (18.6% versus 13.9%). In contrast, postcode 2825 has more recent overseas arrivals (16.7% versus 7.7%) and a higher share of people earning $2,000 or more a week (10.3% versus 6.8%).

Daily life is quite similar in both places, with nearly identical shares of people who volunteer, those who served in the Defence Force, and those who need help with daily activities. They also have very similar proportions of people aged 65 and over. While both areas have a much higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population than the national figure, the gap between them has narrowed since 2011. Other differences, such as the gap in typical weekly rents and the number of adults working or looking for work, have widened over the same period.
