Majura Duntroon

Duntroon and Majura are neighbouring areas in the Australian Capital Territory, though they offer very different lifestyles. Duntroon is a hub for the military, with 72.6% of residents having served in the Defence Force and 90.8% working in public administration and safety. It is a highly mobile area where 79.9% of people moved in the last five years, and almost all homes are rented. Majura is far more sparsely populated and car-dependent, with a typical drive time to the city of 53 minutes compared to just 7 minutes in Duntroon. While 95.1% of Duntroon homes have three or more bedrooms, only 69.6% of homes in Majura do.

Both areas share a similar typical weekly household income of around $3,100, which sits near the national figure. They also have similar proportions of people born overseas and a nearly identical share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents. Over time, some of the gaps between them are closing; the difference in the share of residents who finished Year 12 has narrowed, and the gap in full-time employment has also shrunk since 2016.
