17 May 2016 Census update
2017 will be a year of renewed discovery as the ABS and REMPLAN gear up for the release of the 2016 Census data.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) has previewed the 2016 Census of Population and Housing data, revealing the ‘typical’ Australian in 2016 was a 38-year-old, married, mother of two, paying off a mortgage and doing 5 to 14 hours of housework in her three-bedroom home.
A further release from ABS has revealed the ‘typical’ Australian family (currently a couple with children) is about to undergo significant change. The ABS are projecting the number of couple families without children is likely to overtake the number of couple families with children, becoming the most common family type in Australia between 2023 and 2029.
