2823, NSW 2826, NSW

Postcode 2823 and postcode 2826 are nearby rural areas in New South Wales, though they differ in their layout and demographics. Postcode 2823 is more walkable, with 60.6% of homes having a 15-minute-city walkshed and more residents within walking distance of schools and health services. In contrast, postcode 2826 is car-dependent, but has far more public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people. There are also notable social differences: one-parent families are far more common in postcode 2823 at 18.7%, while postcode 2826 has a much higher share of homes owned outright at 58.5%.

Since 2011, the two areas have seen some gaps narrow while others have grown. The difference in the share of adults working or looking for work has decreased, as has the gap in outright home ownership. However, the difference in rental rates has widened, with renting now far more common in postcode 2823. Despite these shifts, they remain similar in a few key ways, such as having nearly identical typical weekly household incomes and a very small number of people using a language other than English at home.
