Suburb profile

Irlpme is a welcoming smaller community in Alice Springs, with a settled community character. Remote from the metro area in the best sense: quiet streets, big skies and a town that runs on its own timetable. Young professionals and new households shape much of the local mix.

There is a settled, neighbourly feel to the area that rewards people who like knowing their patch. The market sits in a sensible middle ground: not cheap, but fair value for the area.
