Australian zoning codes explained

Every state writes its own zoning codes, so the same idea wears a different label in each place. We group them all into seven plain-English families so you can compare across borders. RZ1 in the ACT, R2 in NSW and GRZ in Victoria are all just "residential".

The seven families

Residential
Houses, townhouses, apartments — low to high density
Commercial & centres
Shops, offices, town centres, mixed use
Industrial & employment
Factories, warehouses, urban services
Rural
Farming, primary production, village edges
Environment & waterways
Conservation, bushland, rivers and coast
Open space
Parks, sportsgrounds, public recreation
Special & infrastructure
Schools, hospitals, roads, rail, utilities

Cross-state comparison
