Blackmore Darwin River

Darwin River and Blackmore are two nearby areas in the Northern Territory. Darwin River is home to 627 people, while Blackmore is largely non-residential with a population of zero. The most significant difference is that Darwin River has 61 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, which is more than most areas at this level, whereas Blackmore has none.

Both areas are completely car-dependent, with no residents living within a 15-minute walk of a park, school, or health service. This shared lack of local amenities is consistent across both places, which also have no public transport stops or routes.
