Postcode comparison ≈ 11 km apart · 0838, NT profile · 0841, NT profile

0838, NT 0841, NT

Postcode 0838 and postcode 0841 are two nearby areas in the Northern Territory. Postcode 0838 is younger, with a typical resident aged 38, compared to 47 in postcode 0841. This younger population is reflected in a higher share of children under 15 (23.7% versus 16.3%) and more people caring for children unpaid. Postcode 0838 also has a higher typical weekly household income of $2,183, while postcode 0841 is $1,550. In contrast, postcode 0841 is more likely to have homes owned outright, at 35.4% compared to 26.8% in postcode 0838, and a much higher share of people living alone (32.5% versus 20.4%).

Both areas are very similar in their proportions of people born overseas (around 13%) and the share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher (about 10%). They are also alike in having no public transport stops or departures per 1,000 people. However, some gaps are widening; the difference in typical age has grown from 1 year in 2011 to 9 years today, and the income gap has similarly increased from $198 to $633 over the same period.
