Dataset extent

Description

This dataset presents projected population by ages for 5-year periods between the years of 2011 and 2036 for the state of New South Wales (NSW). The data is presented as aggregations following the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) 2016 Local Government Areas (LGA).

Population projections provide a picture of the population as it may develop in future years. They provide an indication of the size and age-sex structure of the future population if specified assumptions about future fertility, mortality and migration are realised.

Population projections are not forecasts and do not attempt to predict the impact that future government policies, changing economic circumstances or other factors (whether in Australia or overseas) might have on demographic behaviour.

For more information please read the Population Projections User Guide.

Please note:

  • AURIN has spatially enabled the original data.

  • The data has been transposed to present the population age groups as distinct columns and use a compulsory filter to select the projection year.

  • Population numbers are rounded to the nearest 50. They should not be taken to be accurate to that level of detail.
