|What information is shown here? | |

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

|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 |101,675 |

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

|square kilometre. |13,650 |

|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 Perth. | |

|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 |7,335 |

|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 |3,355 |

|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.|2,240 |

|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.|8.3% (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 Perth 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 |23,865 |

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

|Note: respondents can identify more than one ancestry – see question below |1,365 |

|Question 18 (Census 2016) | |

|What is the Person's ancestry? |130 |

|Provide up to two ancestries only. | |

|Responses available are: English, Irish, Scottish, Italian, German, Chinese, Australian, and 'Other - please |12,110 |

|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. |23.5% (Australia = 31.2%) |

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

|The information on the right shows the number of people in Perth 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 other |Born outside Australia |

|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 well|People who speak language other than English at home |

|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 interpreted with care. |52,505 |

|Nevertheless, it is a useful indicator of the ethnicity of the population and for the planning and provision of multilingual | |

|services. |40,295 |

|Austudy is a means-tested payment made to full-time students and Australian apprentices who are aged 25 years and older.|Youth Allowance (student and apprentice) |

|Youth Allowance (student and apprentice) is a means‐tested payment for full‐time students and Australian apprentices. | |

|ABSTUDY (Living Allowance) provides a living allowance and a range of supplementary benefits for Aboriginal and Torres |ABSTUDY (Living allowance) |

|Strait Islander students and apprentices. ABSTUDY (Non-Living Allowance) refers to recipients who do not receive the | |

|ABSTUDY Living Allowance but receive an ABSTUDY supplementary payment only. Supplementary payments include Schooling A | |

|Unemployed: |300 |

|Newstart Allowance is the major payment for unemployed people who are 22 and over, but under the qualifying age for the | |

|Age Pension (65). Recipients must satisfy the activity test by seeking work or participating in an activity designed to |885 |

|improve their employment prospects. | |

|person must be unemployed, aged under 22, looking for work or combining part‐time study with job search, or undertaking | |

|any other approved activity, or temporarily incapacitated for work or study. | |

|Note: To calculate rates (the percentages in the blue boxes below the total number), we divide the number of recipients |0.4% (Australia = 0.2%) |

|by the population of eligible age at the last Census. For areas that have experienced significant change in population | |

|since the last Census, these rates are not reliable. |7.4% (Australia = 6.0%) |
