It s a good life in the Territory.
People can have a go and be rewarded for doing so.
New Territorians often remark on the warm welcome they receive, how safe they feel and the community spirit they experience. With extended families often far away, friends, neighbours and work colleagues form support networks and are highly valued. The remainder live in smaller communities on pastoral properties and at mining sites. Population experts predict Darwin will have a population of one million by 2100, and other parts of the Territory are likely to also experience strong growth. Between 1996 and 2021, the Territory is projected to have the fastest increase in the total number of households.
