Connellan Mount Johns

Mount Johns and Connellan are neighbouring areas in Alice Springs with very different characters. Mount Johns is a young, highly educated hub where the typical resident is 35 and 43.2% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher. It is a transient place where 73.5% of people moved in during the last five years, and 62.2% of residents are recent arrivals from overseas. In contrast, Connellan is much older, with a typical age of 48 and a higher proportion of seniors, as 19.4% of people are aged 65 and over. Housing also differs sharply; while 92.4% of homes in Connellan are separate houses, Mount Johns is dominated by townhouses and flats.

Everyday life in both areas shares several similarities, with nearly identical numbers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and the same typical monthly home-loan payments. Both areas are also largely car-dependent, as neither has any homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. While Mount Johns has seen far more recent overseas arrivals and a higher share of renters, both areas have maintained similar levels of high-income earners, with about 32% of households earning $3,000 or more a week.
