0839, NT 0841, NT

Postcode 0841 and postcode 0839 are nearby areas in the Northern Territory that offer very different lifestyles. Postcode 0841 is a sprawling area where residents are far older, with a typical age of 47, and 98.6% of homes are separate houses. In contrast, postcode 0839 is a compact, urban space with a typical age of 31, where renting is far more common at 70.6%. The two areas also differ in wealth and diversity; postcode 0841 has a far higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (23.1%), while postcode 0839 has far more people born overseas (24.3%) and a far higher share of people using another language at home (17.1%).

The gap in resident ages has widened since 2016, growing from 10 to 16 years. Despite this, the two areas are similar in some ways, such as having almost the same share of children under 15 and very similar unemployment rates. They also sit at the same level of overall advantage, both scoring 3 out of 10. However, their daily environments differ completely: postcode 0839 is highly connected with easy walk access to groceries and health services, while postcode 0841 is car-dependent with no public transport stops.
