Way to figure out residential postcodes #18

Just wondering if there's a way to determine if a postcode is residential or not?

I am curious about your question too.

Can we say if the entire postcode is residential or not? I guess for some postcodes like CBD is obvious, but for some other like North Sydney would be a mix?

I checked NSW valuer general, and by looking at a tiny subset of data, I could get the purpose of the "property" as below. https://valuation.property.nsw.gov.au/embed/propertySalesInformation.

Maybe if we run a report on all the properties in one postcode we could say if this postcode is generally residential or commercial or etc.

MARINE BERTH
FARM
SHOP
CARSPACE
WAREHOUSE
FACTORY
VACANT LAND
OFFICE
COMMERICAL
INDUSTRIAL
RESIDENCE
COMMERCIAL

Interesting question I know some people in the national property space, so will ask them next week if they have a database that has all this information I can add it.
