Dataset extent

Description

This dataset contains statistics about births and fertility rates for Australia, states and territories, and sub-state regions. It includes all births that occurred and were registered in Australia, including births to mothers whose place of usual residence was overseas.

Estimated resident populations (ERPs) are used as denominators to calculate fertility rates and are based on the results of the 2016 Census. This dataset uses the ABS Local Government Areas (LGA) boundaries of the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS): Volume 3 - Non ABS Structures .

For more information such as the scope, coverage and exclusions used in this dataset please visit the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) methodology documentation.

AURIN has spatially enabled the original data from the ABS with the 2020 LGA boundaries.
