Batchelor Eva Valley

Batchelor and Eva Valley are neighbouring areas in the Northern Territory with very different living patterns. Batchelor has a far higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people (30.1%) and a much higher proportion of renters (49.7%). In contrast, residents are far older in Eva Valley, where the typical age is 55, and more people own their homes outright (42.1%). Batchelor is also more walkable, as many homes are within a 15-minute walk of health services (83.5%) and groceries (82.0%), while Eva Valley is car-dependent.

These two areas have tracked similarly since 2011 in terms of typical personal incomes, which remain very close.

Both areas have a similar share of people using a language other than English at home, and neither has any residents who speak little or no English.
