List of Postcodes in The Northern Territory

Postcodes are used by Australia Post to identify postal districts in Australia.

The NT system is organised such that:

  • The numbering follows a broadly north-south pattern;
  • Except in Darwin's suburban area, the final digit indicates:
    • 0 - major centre (Palmerston, Katherine, Tennant Creek, Alice Springs, Nhulunbuy)
    • 1 - PO box
    • 2 - region surrounding major centre
    • 3-9 - other towns in district

Historically NT codes were in the 5750-5799 range, with a similar organisation except that it followed a south-north pattern, with Darwin being 5790. The move to the new range occurred in the early 1990s.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, northern and/or territory:

    Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I have found that anything that comes out of the South is going to be called grotesque by the Northern reader, unless it is grotesque, in which case it is going to be called realistic.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    I reckon I got to light out for the Territory ahead of the rest, because Aunt Sally she’s going to adopt me and sivilize me and I can’t stand it. I been there before.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
