|What information is shown here? | |

|The information on this page shows the number of people living in Tennant Creek. These population figures provide detail |Population at last Census |

|of the structure of the population by broad age bands and sex. The information boxes break down the overall population by| |

|gender, followed by young people, working age (15-64), 65+ and families with young children. |Total population aged 0-14 |

|Census data is published by statistical area level 1 (SA1), which is, on average, around 400 households. It is the most | |

|accurate estimate for small area populations immediately following publications, but becomes less reliable over time. |Working age population |

| |(15-64) |

|Estimate Resident Population (ERP) is estimated as at 30 June each year and published by statistical area level 2 (SA2). | |

|When we disaggregate this for small areas, we assume this population is spread evenly over the area. |Aged 65+ |

| | |

|The population density is calculated by dividing the population of the area (Census 2016) by its area in square |2,995 |

|kilometres (ABS 3218.0 - Regional Population Growth, Australia, 2016). The result is expressed as a number of people per | |

|square kilometre. |645 |

|What information is shown here? |Indigenous people |

|This page shows a summary of Indigenous populations by age and gender. Indigenous populations are defined | |

|as persons who identified as being of Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander origin in the |Indigenous males |

|Census. | |

|The percentages in the blue boxes with breakdowns by age and gender, and the population pyramid below, show|Indigenous females |

|the percentage of the Indigenous population that falls into each age bracket. So if Males age 10-14 is 12%,| |

|it means that 12% of the Indigenous males in the area are aged 10-14. | |

|What information is shown here? |Divorced |

|The information on this page shows the composition of households in Tennant Creek. | |

|Social Marital Status is applicable to all persons aged 15 years and over who were usually resident and present in the |Widowed |

|household on Census Night. It is not applicable to persons in non‐private dwellings. Social marital status is the | |

|relationship status of an individual to another person who is usually resident in the household. For the purpose of this |Separated |

|data collection, a marriage exists when two people live together as husband and wife, or partners, regardless of whether | |

|the marriage is formalised through registration. Individuals are, therefore, regarded as married if they are in a de facto |190 |

|marriage, or if they are living with the person to whom they are registered as legally married. | |

|Note: de facto marriage for opposite sex couples includes persons who report de facto, partner, common law |100 |

|husband/wife/spouse, lover, girlfriend or boyfriend. Where information about same‐sex couples is volunteered in the | |

|relationship question it is included in the family coding and the person is classified as a partner in a de facto marriage.|100 |

|Widowed refers to a person whose spouse in a registered marriage has died and who has not remarried. | |

|Divorced refers to a person who has formally ended his or her registered marriage by legal means and who has not remarried.|8.0% (Australia = 8.5%) |

|People who have obtained a decree nisi are considered to be divorced. | |

|What information is shown here? |Australian ancestry |

|The information on the right shows the number of people in Tennant Creek by ancestry. | |

|A person's ancestry, when used in conjunction with the person's country of birth and whether the person's |Australasian - non Australian |

|parents were born in Australia or overseas, provides a good indication of the ethnic background of first and | |

|second generation Australians. Ancestry is particularly useful to identify distinct ethnic or cultural groups |Australian Aboriginal ancestry |

|within Australia such as Maoris or Australian South Sea Islanders, and groups which are spread across | |

|countries such as Kurds or Indians, where country of birth does not identify these groups. The 2016 Census |Asian ancestry |

|uses the Australian Standard Classification of Cultural and Ethnic Groups (ASCCEG) 2016 to classify responses | |

|given to the ancestry question. More detail on Australia’s most common 20 ancestries by parents’ country of |935 |

|birth and languages spoken at home is on page 10. | |

|Note: respondents can identify more than one ancestry – see question below |60 |

|Question 18 (Census 2016) | |

|What is the Person's ancestry? |880 |

|Provide up to two ancestries only. | |

|Responses available are: English, Irish, Scottish, Italian, German, Chinese, Australian, and 'Other - please |90 |

|specify'. The response 'Other - please specify' requires a written response. Examples of 'Other - please | |

|specify' are GREEK, VIETNAMESE, HMONG, DUTCH, KURDISH, MAORI, LEBANESE, AUSTRALIAN SOUTH SEA ISLANDER. |31.3% (Australia = 31.2%) |

|What information is shown here? |Born in Australia |

|The information on the right shows the number of people in Tennant Creek born in Australia and outside Australia (percentages | |

|may not sum to 100, as ‘Not stated’ is an output category in this Census question). It also shows people who speak languages |Born outside Australia |

|other than English at home and those who speak English not well or not at all. Responses to the question on speaking English | |

|well are subjective. For example, one respondent may consider that a response of 'well' is appropriate if they can communicate|People who speak language other than English at home |

|well enough to do the shopping while another respondent of similar English proficiency may respond with ‘not well’ . | |

|Proficiency in spoken English should be regarded as an indicator of a person's ability to speak English and should be |2,210 |

|interpreted with care. Nevertheless, it is a useful indicator of the ethnicity of the population and for the planning and | |

|provision of multilingual services. |420 |
