0862, NT 0875, NT

Postcode 0875 and postcode 0862 are two very different parts of the Northern Territory, separated by nearly 600 km. Postcode 0875 is more affluent, with a typical weekly family income of $2,276 compared to just $866 in postcode 0862. It also has a far higher share of university degrees (19.2% versus 7.9%) and more people born overseas (20.5% versus 5.7%). In contrast, postcode 0862 has a much larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 51.5%, which is 18 percentage points higher than in postcode 0875.

Everyday life in both areas shares some similarities, such as having a similar proportion of seniors (around 7%) and homes with three or more bedrooms. However, the gaps between them are shifting; the difference in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population has narrowed since 2016, while the gap in family incomes has widened.
