Strata schemes
529 strata schemes are registered in postcode 2089, with 5,690 lots between them, and 71% of its addresses are in one (NSW 25%). They were registered 39.8 years ago on average (NSW 29.1), which dates the scheme, not always its building.
A scheme is counted where most of its addresses are. Lots include the garages, storerooms and shops a plan makes lots of, and a scheme that has been wound up leaves the register.

Federal elections
At the 2025 federal election, the two-party-preferred vote in postcode 2089 split an estimated 59.9% Labor to 40.1% Coalition, against 55.3% to 44.7% across NSW.

Where do crashes happen in postcode 2089, and how easy is public transport?
Road crashes
Police recorded 183 crashes in which someone was killed or injured in postcode 2089 over 2016–2025, about 18 a year; 48 of them were fatal or caused a serious injury. That's 1.5 a year per 1,000 residents, close to the NSW rate (1.7). 61% of them were on state roads (highways and main roads). Crash counts follow traffic: a place that many people drive, ride or walk through counts their crashes too, so the rate says more about that traffic than about the streets residents use.

December 2022–2025 snapshots, each a weekday's timetable (the first Tuesday in December; school buses excluded). TfNSW bands its accessibility index from the walk to nearby stops and how often they are served into levels 1 (low) to 6 (very high); 0 is our code for a mesh block with no service that hour. Averaged over residents (ABS 2021 mesh-block counts) for suburbs, postcodes and councils: a summary, not a level TfNSW publishes. CC BY.
- Revenue NSW, duty, first home buyer and land tax statistics by postcode (revenue.nsw.gov.au), data as at 1 October 2026. Financial years to June 2026, each shown once it has ended: first home buyer duty exemptions and concessions from 2009–10, First Home Owner Grant payments from 2021–22 and transfer duty on residential land from 2020–21, each by the postcode on the lodged transfer or the grant. Exemptions are counted at lodgement and grants at payment, so the two don't match; duty is the amount paid, not a count of sales. Suburb and council figures are estimates, shared out from postcodes by their 2021 dwellings (ABS mesh blocks). CC BY.
- Liquor & Gaming NSW, gaming machine reports, © State of New South Wales, CC BY 4.0. Net profit, machines and venues for clubs and hotels, by council and by venue, from December 2016. Machines are authorised machines at a year's last report, and can include machines in storage. Small councils are reported together with neighbours, and those groups change between reports: a council with a combined report has no net profit in dollars of its own, and its figure per resident is worked out over the residents of the councils in each report (ABS estimated resident population). Machines and venues are each council's own, summed from the venue reports. Hotel years run January to December and club years December to November.
- Bowerbird estimate, modelled from Liquor & Gaming NSW's gaming machine reports, © State of New South Wales, CC BY 4.0. Our estimate of each club's and hotel's net profit from its machines, before gaming tax, from 2017 (suburbs from 2021). Liquor & Gaming NSW publishes each venue's rank by net profit and its machines, and dollars only by council; the model fits the ranks to the council totals and adds the venues up by the postcode and council the rankings give and the suburb the premises list places them in. It isn't a published figure, and this release has a range for a venue (the map's venue card) but none for an area: on council rows held back, its median error is under 1%, and where clubs' own accounts were reported, most read 5% to 12% below it. A venue with a loss reads as a small profit. Takings include visitors. The latest year is a part year.
- Liquor & Gaming NSW, licensed premises list, each October from 2021, © State of New South Wales, CC BY 4.0. Licences with premises people go to, placed by the list's own coordinates. Limited licences, pop-ups, producers and delivery-only businesses aren't counted, nor are venues that have stopped trading for six weeks or more. Hours tiers are what a licence allows, not when a venue opens. The list's licensees aren't shown.

- Bureau of Health Information. Healthcare Quarterly: Ambulance. Sydney (NSW); BHI. Free to use for non-commercial purposes with BHI acknowledged. NSW Ambulance responses and incidents by financial year, and emergency (category 2) response times for the latest quarter, as BHI reports them by ABS statistical area (SA3). A suburb, postcode or council takes the figures of the SA3 around it, so they are the wider area's, not its own. Rates per 1,000 residents use the SA3's ABS estimated resident population. NSW Ambulance changed its response grid in February 2025, so responses either side of it don't strictly compare.
- NSW Fair Trading rental bond refunds, by postcode. Every bond refunded, by the rented home's postcode, from 2021: the dollars to the tenant and to the landlord or agent, and the days Fair Trading held it. Years are calendar years, the latest a part year until December; the 12-month figures run to the latest file. Shares and medians need at least 30 refunds. The files give no reason for a payment to the landlord or agent, which may have been agreed. Days held is a bond's life over finished bonds only, not how long tenancies last. CC BY 4.0.
- NSW Fair Trading rental bonds held, by postcode, each December. The bonds Fair Trading held at the end of each year, by the rented home's postcode, and new bonds lodged in the year for every 100 held: how often rented homes change hands, not vacancy. Social housing takes no bond, so it isn't counted. Rates and changes need at least 30 bonds held. CC BY 4.0.
- Australian Bureau of Statistics, Building Approvals, Australia, CC BY 4.0: dwelling units approved by SA2 (ABS Data API). Dwelling units approved each month from July 2021, by councils and private certifiers: new houses, townhouses and apartments, and the dwellings alterations create, added up by financial year to June; the latest year runs to the latest month the ABS has published for small areas. An approval is what may be built, not what was. Per 1,000 residents divides by the ABS estimated resident population at the start of the year, left out under 200 residents. The ABS publishes SA2s and councils; a suburb's or postcode's figure shares its SA2s' approvals out by their 2021 Census residents, so it is an estimate. Original series, not seasonally adjusted.

The register of strata schemes as at 3 November 2026, each placed through its plan number or footprint at its G-NAF addresses and counted where most of them are. Lots include the garages, storerooms and shops a plan makes lots of; the share of addresses counts a scheme's units and common property. Ages and eras date each scheme's registration, not its building. A scheme that has been wound up leaves the register. Creative Commons (no version stated).
Postal areas are ABS Postal Areas (POA 2021), which follow Australia Post postcodes closely but not exactly. A suburb belongs to the postal area its centre falls in; suburb figures are the suburb pages' own.
