0800, NT 0812, NT

Postcode 0812 and postcode 0800 are two nearby areas in Greater Darwin with very different lifestyles. Postcode 0812 is a family-oriented area where separate houses are common (77.3%) and 21.9% of the population are children. It has a far higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population (14.9%) and more one-parent families (18.3%). In contrast, postcode 0800 is an urban hub dominated by flats and apartments (98.6%). It is far more likely to have residents born overseas (45.8%) and adults with a bachelor degree or higher (41.5%).

These two areas have tracked in opposite directions since 2011, with many of the gaps between them widening. While typical weekly household incomes are similar, the divide in housing has grown, with postcode 0800 becoming far more reliant on renting (75.3%). Both areas are highly accessible, with postcode 0812 being very walkable and postcode 0800 a walker's paradise. This ease of movement is a shared trait, as nearly every home in both areas is within a 15-minute walk of a park or school.
