2827, NSW 2828, NSW

Postcode 2827 and postcode 2828 are two nearby New South Wales areas with very different profiles. Postcode 2827 is larger and more populated, where typical monthly home-loan payments are far higher at $1,083 compared to $460 in postcode 2828. It also has a much larger number of school enrolments (531 versus 104) and more homes within a 15-minute walk of a park. In contrast, postcode 2828 has a far higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents (23.2% versus 15.8%) and more people who have completed Year 12.

These two areas have tracked in different directions since 2011. The gap in typical home-loan payments has flipped, with postcode 2827 now paying much more. Meanwhile, the difference in the proportion of people living alone has also shifted, as postcode 2828 now has a well higher share at 37.1%. Despite these shifts, they remain very similar in other ways, such as their typical weekly household incomes and the fact that both have a small number of residents who speak a language other than English at home.
