Drysdale Goyder

Goyder and Drysdale are very different Northern Territory environments. Goyder is a car-dependent area where the typical resident is 41 and 31.4% of households earn $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, Drysdale is very walkable with a much younger population, where the typical resident is 33 and 48% of homes are rented. Drysdale also has a far higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents at 19.5%, compared to 8.5% in Goyder.

Both areas have similar shares of people who speak little or no English, which sits at 2% for each and is well below the national figure. While they share some commonalities in full-time employment and unpaid care, the gaps between them are often widening. Since 2011, the difference in rental rates and the number of one-parent families has grown significantly, while the gap in home ownership and typical household incomes has also increased.
