2822, NSW 2828, NSW

Postcode 2828 has a much larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 23.2%, compared to 10.6% in postcode 2822. There are also stark differences in local access; in postcode 2828, about 40% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services, while postcode 2822 has no homes within that distance. However, postcode 2822 sees higher typical monthly home-loan payments of $1,300, which is far higher than the $460 seen in postcode 2828.
