Postcode comparison ≈ 17 km apart · 0830, NT profile · 0839, NT profile

0830, NT 0839, NT

Postcode 0830 and postcode 0839 are nearby areas in the Northern Territory with very different living patterns. Postcode 0830 is a larger area with many more family homes, as 77.1% of dwellings are separate houses and 23.9% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, postcode 0839 is a small, densely built area where flats or apartments are common and 70.6% of homes are rented. Postcode 0839 is much more focused on urban living, with a far higher share of people living alone (40.4%) and far more recent overseas arrivals (27.4%).

Since 2011, the gaps between these two areas have shifted in several ways. The difference in high weekly incomes and the share of people living alone have both widened. However, the gap has narrowed in terms of how many people have moved into the areas recently. Despite these trends, the two places remain alike in some ways, such as their unemployment rates and the share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher, which are nearly the same.
