0860, NT 0874, NT

Postcode 0860 and postcode 0874 are two very different areas of the Northern Territory. Postcode 0860 has a far higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 55.4%, compared to 6.0% in postcode 0874. In contrast, postcode 0874 is much more diverse in terms of birth, with 54.0% of people born overseas compared to 15.0% in postcode 0860. There is also a significant gap in education and income; the typical weekly family income in postcode 0874 is $3,374, which is far higher than the $1,433 seen in postcode 0860.

Many of these gaps have widened since 2016, particularly for typical family incomes and the share of people with a university degree. Despite these trends, the two areas are effectively alike in some ways, such as having almost the same share of people who speak little or no English. They also share a similar proportion of homes with three or more bedrooms, and both areas have a very low number of public transport stops.
