2823, NSW 2828, NSW

Postcode 2823 and postcode 2828 are two sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Postcode 2823 is more walkable, with about 61% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services and schools, compared to around 39% in postcode 2828. The typical monthly home-loan payment in postcode 2823 is far higher at $1,056, while it is $460 in postcode 2828. Postcode 2823 also has a larger share of people aged 65 and over, at 23.9% compared to 18.4% in postcode 2828.

Since 2011, the two areas have tracked in different directions across several measures. The gap in monthly mortgage payments has flipped, and the lead in rental shares has also reversed. However, they remain very similar in other ways, such as having the same typical number of people per home (2.3) and an almost identical share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher. Both areas have a much higher proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents than the national figure.
