Jilkminggan Larrimah

Jilkminggan and Larrimah are two distinct Northern Territory areas with very different populations. Jilkminggan is a young place where the typical resident is 25, and 96.6% of people are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander. In contrast, Larrimah's residents are far older, with a typical age of 37 and a much higher share of seniors at 29.6%. There are also stark gaps in wealth and education; the typical weekly personal income in Larrimah is $1,093, far higher than the $248 seen in Jilkminggan, and Larrimah has a far higher share of adults who completed Year 12 (56.0% compared to 22.7%).

Everyday life in both places shares a similar lack of public transport and a similar proportion of people who identify as having no religion (about 44%). While they are both sparsely populated, Jilkminggan is more stable with very few people moving in recently, whereas 66.7% of Larrimah residents arrived in the last five years. This movement in Larrimah is consistent with its higher share of people born overseas (29.6%) and a larger proportion of adults working or looking for work.
