Congratulations Dreamer11, can you please tell us in which state and profession did you apply in ?

I am a landscaper and was nominated by Northern Territory however I have been offered a job in Adelaide in SA which I have accepted. My visa grant is regional to Australia not just the Northern Territory so this is allowed.

You may be In Darwin now but this may be helpful to others 

 

I live in Darwin & personally if you’ve young family the best suburbs are Muirhead & Lyons in the northern suburbs 

new housing with parks plenty places to rent . Near the beach & Casuarina square the main shopping centre . 

Plus in Lyons is Tracy Village a local sports & social club , it’s nothing fancy but cheap food & has a great outdoor grass area for kids to play ok whilst you can sit & watch eating & drinking etc 

Although some nice new suburbs Palmerston is not for me . To much anti social behaviour out there  to far out I don’t like the look of it . Even in the nice suburbs people I work with who live there moan about the anti social behaviour.  The Gateway shopping centre is nice but small .

Most of the suburbs have a few average houses etc but probably better ones include 

Leanyer, Nightcliff ( but only near the foreshore side not near Coconut Grove side ) , Parap , Stuart Park , Bayview 

Tiwi & Brinkin are ok . Cullen Bay & Larrakeyah are lovely but probably expensive if with a young family  

 

hope this helps

Thanks Paul. Really helpful information. 

Cheers,

Gordon

Thanks very much for all the suggestions. They have been a very useful guide. 

Thanks everyone! There is just so many little suburbs its hard to decide where!

Hi There,

I have just been granted my nomination for a Skilled Worker Regional Visa by NT government. We were initially planning on moving to Perth or Adelaide as we have family/friends there but NT gave us the sponsor. 

We are a bit clueless on the suburbs/areas in Darwin and any help or information would be appreciated. We have two young kids, one aged 3 and a baby coming up on a year old. Where would be the best suburbs for us looking to rent a 4 bedroom property?  Ideally somewhere with good schools and plenty of parks.

Thanks,

G
