Populations are counted and estimated in various ways. The most comprehensive population count available in Australia is derived from the Census of Population and Housing conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics every five years. However the Census count is NOT the official population of Ararat Rural City. To provide a more accurate population figure which is updated more frequently than every five years, the Australian Bureau of Statistics also produces "Estimated Resident Population" (ERP) numbers for Ararat Rural City. See data notes for a detailed explanation of different population types, how they are calculated and when to use each one.

Townships were established in the 1850s, spurred by the gold rush. Ararat developed as the largest town in the district. Growth took place in the late 1800s, spurred by the arrival of the railway in 1875. Expansion continued during the early 1900s, and again during the immediate post-war years. The population of the City declined slightly during the 1990s, falling from over 12,000 in 1991 to about 11,000 in 2001. The population was then relatively stable between 2001 and 2011.

Page 8 of 81 Five year age groups The Age Structure of Ararat Rural City provides key insights into the level of demand for age based services and facilities such as child care. It is also an indicator of Ararat Rural City's residential role and function and how it is likely to change in the future. Five year age groups present a classic age profile of the population. Each age group covers exactly five years, which enables direct comparison between each group. To get a more complete picture Ararat Rural City's Age Structure should be viewed in conjunction with Household Types and Dwelling Types.

  • 5. Australian Memorial Avenues
    5. AUSTRALIAN MEMORIAL AVENUES Information from published literature, personal discussions with members of the public and the arboricultural profession and the survey forms conducted by this study have been collated to produce a summary of memorial avenues throughout Australia. This list contains historical and descriptive information where available and represents all avenues known to these contributors. This list is unlikely to contain all avenues ever planted and may contain inaccuracies. It is possible that some avenues, particularly in Victoria, have been listed twice as some avenues have been called different names by different sources. All care has been made to only include factual information but a detailed investigation of all individual avenues is required for complete accuracy. In some isolated cases certain facts may already be lost to history and we must rely on opinion and conjecture. FIG 5.1: BACCHUS MARSH AVENUE OF HONOUR, VIC. (SARAH COCKERELL 2007) 1 5.1 Australian Capital Territory and Northern Territory No avenues were identified in the Northern Territory. Several single trees and other vegetative memorials exist. Only 2 avenues within the ACT have been identified. No council surveys were completed for these avenues. 5.1.1. Locations, Tree Details, Signs and Plaques The small number of avenues in the ACT is probably caused by the small area occupied by the Territory and the proximity of various federal memorials. Instead of local communities building their own memorials the presence of the federal government in Canberra resulted in larger, national memorials such as the Australian War Memorial. It is not known why the memorial at Hall contains such a variety of species or if any of the trees were replacements from the original planting.
