Weddell Moulden

Weddell and Moulden are nearby Northern Territory areas with very different layouts. Weddell is a vast, car-dependent area where 95.1% of homes are separate houses and the typical drive to the city takes 54 minutes. In contrast, Moulden is more compact and somewhat walkable, with 44.4% of households renting and a much higher share of one-parent families (30.3% compared to 12.0% in Weddell). First Nations household income is also far higher in Weddell at $2,105, while in Moulden it is $1,231.

The gap in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population has widened since 2011, with Moulden now at 24.1% and Weddell at 9.7%. Despite this, the two areas share several traits, including similar proportions of people born overseas (around 13%) and nearly identical rates of Year 12 completion. Both areas also have an equal number of public transport stops and similar shares of full-time employment.
