Livingstone Noonamah

Livingstone and Noonamah are two nearby Northern Territory areas with distinct demographic profiles. Livingstone is a younger area where 20.5% of residents are children under 15, and it has a higher share of larger homes, with 71.4% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Noonamah has a noticeably older population, including a higher share of people aged 65 and over (18.9%) and a far higher proportion of people living alone at 37.8%. Transport and access also differ sharply; Noonamah has far more public transport stops and walkable amenities, while Livingstone has none.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining largely car-dependent with almost no residents living within a 15-minute walk of groceries or schools. They share very similar typical personal incomes of around $920 a week and nearly identical rates of people born overseas. While Noonamah has a larger First Nations population and far older First Nations residents, Livingstone has a well higher typical First Nations household income of $2,625.
