2021 Australian Census Insights: Lockdowns, Migration, and Household Formation
The first tranche of data from the Australian 2021 Census is due for release on the 28th of June. Representing the most comprehensive snapshot of the country, the census provides key insights to the economic, social and cultural make-up of Australia. In this webinar we will discuss the topical housing, population, and employment data points, including what they mean for our forecast outlook.
Talking points include:
• The 2016 Census delivered considerable population revisions. What will the 2021 Census reveal?
• To what extent did COVID-19 and server issues on census night impact data quality?
• How have age-specific household formation rates shifted across the country?
