Understanding Pop. Data

A population at any time is made up of:

people who live somewhere

+people born

- people who die

+ people who move to that place

Why is the Census so important? The Census is the ONLY comprehensive

count of people in Australia. All other population data that you will see

from anywhere else in some way relies on and counts census data.

Budgets for Levels of Government are allocated on the Census

The census is the most accurate estimate in population numbers. The rest are “educated gueses”

The Census only happens every 7 years.

Census Process Continued

Collectors are recruited and trained Every household is counted Special collectors for certain groups (i.e.

Aboriginal, NESB and homeless) Data then scanned Post census checks then done Data creation allowing for post census

checks Data analysed for a “mesh-block” and then

aggregated in a variety of ways.

What census products are there?

Census data can be presented by: where people were on Census night where people work estimates derived from post-analysis

For privacy much of the data at smaller levels is hidden and accuracy at lower levels is reduced.

What Census products are there?

Still to be released:

What has changed?

Local Government Boundaries changed in 2000 (amalgamation) and 2004 (Copmanhurst)

Census District Collection Areas have been removed and replaced by Meshblocks (not available to us) and Statistical Areas. The lowest level is SA1. These don’t match CD areas or Council boundaries.
