Fannie Bay Larrakeyah

Larrakeyah and Fannie Bay are neighbouring areas of Darwin with distinct characters. Larrakeyah is a younger, more transient place where 63.2% of people moved in the last five years and 64.8% of homes are rented. It has a strong international and First Nations presence, with 31.8% of residents arriving recently from overseas and 17.7% speaking a First Nations language. In contrast, Fannie Bay has a larger share of older residents, with 19.7% aged 65 and over compared to 9.1% in Larrakeyah. Fannie Bay is also more walkable, with nearly all homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries, schools and public transport.

These two areas have tracked closely since 2011, maintaining very similar profiles in several key ways. Both have roughly the same number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and an identical average number of people per home. They are also alike in their levels of education, with around 40% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. Typical weekly incomes for households and individuals are also nearly the same in both places, staying close to the national figure.
