NSW 2016 Census and Gen17 Report 13
This pattern of concentration is revealed in even greater detail in Map 2. Again, just a few places accounted for most Jews. To the north of Sydney harbour, the largest concentration was in St Ives and there was a notable presence south of this area towards the harbour—the ‘Lower
North Shore’. But the vast majority of Jews lived south of the harbour in Eastern Suburbs. Dover Heights (SA2) alone accounted for over one in ten (11.5%) Jews in the whole state with adjacent neighbourhoods accounting for much of the remainder.
