Spillett and Goyder are two different types of Northern Territory environments. Spillett is a young, mobile area where the typical resident is 30 and many people have moved in within the last five years. It is also more walkable (somewhat walkable) and has a more qualified workforce, with 64.2% of residents completing Year 12. In contrast, Goyder is a car-dependent area with a much older typical resident of 41. It has more stable housing, with 28.4% of homes owned outright compared to just 7.3% in Spillett.
Both areas share a similar typical weekly family income, around $2,600 to $2,800, and have similar shares of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents.

The difference in housing is also growing, as more people in Spillett rent their homes while the gap in outright home ownership has widened.
