If you like to party, this is the place. Hoons, thumping stereos, the louder the better! lots of stray dogs and car stereos. Definitely no, look elsewhere.

Lived here for a year and it presents well but the houses and lots are very small. My windows were looking straight into the neighbours bedrooms and could hear them do their business in the morning. The houses are way too close together. On the upside the houses are very cheap to buy and for the budget conscious i think this would tick that box. The lake is nice when the council cleans out the algae. For the single fathers there are lots of single mums that live here but I do not recommend any of the schools near by best to send your children to a school in the Darwin area is if you can. Avoid the streets with tricked up cars because of loud exhausts and booming car stereos

Palmerston was the original name for the largest city in the Northern Territory, but it was renamed Darwin after Charles Darwin. When a new housing district was established south east of the city along the Stuart Highway, it was named Palmerston. This area is popular with residents who commute to both Darwin, or take the drive to Kakadu National Park for employment. There are several suburbs within Palmerston, with varying levels of comfort and care. There is a well resourced shopping centre that caters to the needs of both residents and travellers.
