Darwin Palmerston and Litchfield

Darwin is a modern, vibrant, and liveable coastal city located in the tropical north of Australia. Known as Australia’s gateway to Asia, the city offers an enviable lifestyle, a diverse economy, and supports a growing multicultural population. Darwin has a 24-hour international airport, rail, port facility and deep-sea harbour with critical Defence presence in Robertson and Coonawarra Barracks.

The City of Palmerston, only 20km from Darwin, and the rich agricultural lands of Litchfield, are the engine room of future population growth within the Greater Darwin area. Bordered by two light industrial areas, Palmerston is central to key transport infrastructure including the Darwin Port, Adelaide to Darwin Railway, and the Stuart Highway.
