# Local Government Areas im Northern Territory

Im australischen Bundesterritorium Northern Territory trat am 1. Juli 2008 eine Neuordnung der Gebietsgliederung in Kraft. Danach gibt es nur noch 17 Local Government Areas (LGAs), davon 5 Municipalities und 11 Shires. Daneben gibt es fünf meist verstreute Unincorporated Areas (etwa gemeindefreie Gebiete), die zu keiner LGA gehören, die jedoch nur noch 1,45 Prozent der Gesamtfläche (19.428 km²) mit vier Prozent der Bevölkerung auf sich vereinigen.
