INTRODUCTION

• For generations, the vast majority of immigrants
  came from the British Isles, and the people of
  Australia are still mainly of British or Irish
  ethnic origin.
• In the 2011 Australian census, the most commonly
  nominated ancestry was English (36.1), followed
  by Australian (35.4),Irish (10.4), Scottish
  (8.9), Italian (4.6), German (4.5), Chinese
  (4.3), Indian (2.0), Greek (1.9), and Dutch
  (1.7).
• Australia is the 52nd most populous country in
  the world. Its population is concentrated mainly
  in urban areas and is expected to exceed 28
  million by 2030.
• Australia's population has grown from an
  estimated population of about 350,000 at the time
  of British settlement in 1788 due to numerous
  waves of immigration during the period since.
  Also due to immigration, the European component
  of the population is declining as a percentage.
• Australia has fewer than three persons per
  square kilometre of total land area. With 89.01
  of its population living in urban areas,
  Australia is one of the world's most urbanised
  countries.
• The life expectancy of Australia in 19992001
  was 79.7 years, among the highest in the world.
• In common with many other developed countries,
  Australia is experiencing a demographic shift
  towards an older population, with more retirees
  and fewer people of working age. In 2004, the
  average age of the civilian population was 38.8
  years. A large number of Australians (759,849 for
  the period 2002031 million or 5 of the total
  population in 2005) live outside their home
  country.

Indigenous population

• The Indigenous populationAborigines and Torres
  Strait Islanderswas counted at 548,370 (2.5 of
  the total population) in 2011, a significant
  increase from 115,953 in the 1976 census. The
  increase is partly due to many people with
  Indigenous heritage previously having been
  overlooked by the census due to undercount and
  cases where their Indigenous status had not been
  recorded on the form.
• Indigenous Australians experience higher than
  average rates of imprisonment and unemployment,
  lower levels of education, and life expectancies
  for males and females that are, respectively, 11
  and 17 years lower than those of non-indigenous
  Australians. Some remote Indigenous communities
  have been described as having "failed state"-like
  conditions.

Population growth rate
As of the end of September 2012, the population
growth rate was 1.7.This rate was based on
estimates of one birth every 1 minute and
44 seconds, one death every 3 minutes and
32 seconds, a net gain of one international
migrant every 2 minutes and 19 seconds leading
to an overall total population increase of one
person every 1 minute and 23 seconds. In 2009,
the estimated rates were Birth rate 12.47
births/1,000 population (Rank 164) Mortality rate

Ancestry of Australian population
At the 2011 Census residents were asked to
describe their ancestry, in which up to two could
be nominated. Proportionate to the Australian
resident population, the most commonly nominated
ancestries were
English (36.1) Australian (35.4) Irish (10.4) Scottish (8.9) Italian (4.6) German (4.5) Chinese (4.3) Indian (2.0) Greek (1.9) Dutch (1.7) New Zealander (Pakeha/Maori) Filipino Vietnamese Lebanese New Zealander (Pakeha) Polish Maltese Maori Australian Aboriginal Croatian Welsh

parents born in Australia and 34.3 of people had
both parents born overseas.

Religion

• Australia is a religiously diverse country and it
  has no official religion.
• Christianity is the predominant faith of
  Australia, though this is diminishing. In the
  2011 census, 61.1 of the population classified
  themselves as being affiliated with a Christian
  faith, down from 67.3 ten years earlier at the
  2001 census.
• The largest religious denomination was Roman
  Catholicism, with 25.3 of the population.
• The next largest Christian denomination was
  Anglican at 17.1, and all other Christian
  denominations accounted for a further 18.7 of
  the population.
• The second-largest group, and the one which had
  grown the fastest, was the 22.3 who claimed to
  have no religion. Over the ten years since the
  2001 census, this group grew from 15.3 to 22.3
  of the population an increase of 7, which was
  the largest change of any religious
  classification in that period.
• Minority religions practised in Australia include
  Buddhism (2.5 of the population), Islam (2.2),
  Hinduism (1.3) and Judaism (0.5). The Census
  question about religion is optional, and 8.6 of
  people did not respond in the 2011 census.
