First Nations residents are far younger than the national figure, with a typical age of just 18. Language use is very high, with 95% speaking a First Nations language, but this coincides with low school completion rates at 18.4% and typical household incomes of $899, which is far below the Australian average.
The area is almost entirely car-dependent, as no homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or parks. While 100% of homes are within walking distance of a school, the overall walkability score of 0.5 is far below the Northern Territory average of 5.1.
