10 Mar REMPLAN Data Explorers – free economic and demographic information

Authored by Neil McNish

• ‘What are the largest industries in the region?’
• ‘What is our population?’
• ‘How many businesses received JobKeeper during COVID?’
• ‘How many people received JobSeeker payments?’

These are just some of the questions that can be answered by REMPLAN’s suite of free on-line resources.

The new Data Explorers page on our website is a one-stop shop for economic and demographic information.

Using intuitive and colourful map interfaces, you can easily drill down to your area of interest and gain economic and demographic insights into regions across Australia. Most of this information is available at a Local Government Area (LGA) or Statistical Area 2 (SA2) level. You can compare each region with other areas in the same state/territory or Australia.

Explorers that are currently available:

Region Explorer – A range of economic, demographic, forecast and investment profiles

ERP Explorer – Estimated residential population estimates and trend data for LGAs and SA2s

JobKeeper Explorer – Proportions of local businesses that have applied for JobKeeper support at LGA and SA2 level

COVID-19 Impacts – Estimates of the economic impact of COVID-19 by output, employment, wages and salaries and value-added for every LGA in Australia

JobSeeker Explorer – Percentage of the labour force that is receiving JobSeeker support at LGA and SA2 level

These free resources are regularly reviewed and updated and further Explorers are under development. For further information about the ERP Explorer, please refer to our recent blog.

And of course, these Explorers are only the start of the REMPLAN story. Our clients have access to a more comprehensive range of online economic and demographic information and analysis through our REMPLAN Economy, REMPLAN Community, REMPLAN Forecast and REMPLAN Investment products.

We also deliver an extensive range of tailored consulting services including economic impact assessments, cost-benefit analyses, business case development and place-specific analysis.
