Casuarina Wulagi

Wulagi and Casuarina (NT) are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Wulagi is a family-oriented place where 25.3% of residents are children under 15 and separate houses are found in 98.3% of homes. It has a far higher Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population (14.6%) and a typical weekly personal income that is far higher in Wulagi at $1,052. In contrast, Casuarina (NT) is a hub for overseas arrivals, with 77.3% born abroad and 74.4% using another language at home. It is a highly educated area where 53.7% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, and almost all homes (96.7%) are flats or apartments.

Both areas are equally well served by local amenities, with every home within a 15-minute walk of parks, schools and groceries. This shared convenience exists alongside a similar typical family income of around $2,450, which sits near the national figure. While they share these basics, they have diverged in other ways; for example, the gap in the number of people born overseas has grown since 2011.
