0829, NT 0836, NT

Postcode 0836 and postcode 0829 are two nearby areas in the Northern Territory with very different social profiles. Postcode 0836 is a more affluent area where the typical weekly household income is $2,593, and 21.2% of residents are children under 15. In contrast, postcode 0829 has a much younger typical age of 31 and a far higher proportion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at 48.0%. Housing also differs sharply; 97.3% of homes in postcode 0836 are separate houses, while postcode 0829 has a much higher share of renters at 38.0%.

Everyday life in both areas is similar in that very few people speak little or no English and the same share of families are headed by one parent. While they share these traits, other gaps have shifted. Since 2011, the difference in typical household income has widened to $1,181, and the gap in full-time employment has also grown. Both areas are far from the national figure for people who have served in the Defence Force, though this is especially high in postcode 0829 at 28.0%.
