Abstract

RESEARCH AIM
To look at the characteristics of older people who move to the Northern Territory. This research brief discusses the demographic characteristics of people who move to the Northern Territory as they either near retirement or are already retired. As a growing proportion of the Territory’s population reaches retirement age, this may help shed light on who is likely to stay, go, or arrive from elsewhere, and what might influence these patterns.
