It contains a series of tables and graphs that show the characteristics of persons, families and communities. It includes demographic, housing, child development, community safety and child protection information. Where possible, this information is presented at the local government area (LGA) level. In the South Eastern Sydney district, there are seven LGAS: • Bayside1 • Georges River • Randwick • Sutherland Shire • Sydney2 • Waverley • Woollahra The data presented in this document is from a number of different sources, including the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR), NSW Health Stats, the Australian Early Developmental Census (AEDC) and NSW Government administrative data. 1 In 2016, the Botany Bay and Rockdale councils merged to form the Bayside LGA. The data sources used to develop this report do not yet reflect this change in boundaries. As such, where possible, we have merged the data available to us on the Botany Bay and Rockdale LGAs to present figures for the Bayside LGA. When this was not possible, we have presented the data on both the Botany Bay and Rockdale areas. 2 Please note that the City of Sydney LGA sits across both the South Eastern Sydney and Sydney districts, so the data is included in both Data Profiles. 4 South Eastern Sydney Data Profile The majority of these sources are publicly available. Please see the source statements for each table and graph for where the data was extracted from and for where you can find more information. Please also note that the information extracted from the original sources may change slightly as the data is updated over time by the original author (e.g. ABS, NSW Healthstats). As such, for each table or graph we have provided the date this information was accessed. If you would like additional suburb-level and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander specific data, the following sources are available to you: • The ABS provides demographic, cultural and linguistic diversity, employment and housing data at a suburb level though Quick Stats: https://www.abs.gov.au/websitedbs/D3310114. nsf/Home/2016%20QuickStats. For example, for the La Perouse suburb, select ‘La Perouse, NSW: State Suburb (SSC)’ from the drop down menu. • The ABS also ranks suburbs on the Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA): http://stat. data.abs.gov.au/Index.aspx?DataSetCode=SEIFA_SSC. For more information on the SEIFA, see page 29. • BOSCAR records criminal offences at a suburb level:https://www.bocsar.nsw.gov.au/ Pages/bocsar_datasets/Datasets-.aspx. Follow the ‘Suburb’ link in the Geographic breakdown category for a spreadsheet containing all suburb-level crime data. • Information about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander persons, families and dwellings, including comparisons with non-Indigenous people, is also available at LGA level through the ABS 2016 Census Community Profiles: https://www.abs.gov.au/websitedbs/D3310114. nsf/Home/2016%20Census%20Community%20Profiles. For example, for information about the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population of Randwick, select ‘Randwick (C), NSW: Local Government Area (LGA)’ from the drop down menu, and follow the link for the ‘Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples Profile’. 5 South Eastern Sydney Data Profile South Eastern Sydney District Demographics Census 2016 991,429 Median age = 36 people NSW median age = 38 SOUTH EASTERN SYDNEY 9,773 people in this district are Aboriginal and/or 13.3% Torres Strait Islander of NSW (1.0%) population Economic Environment 35.6% $925 Bachelor degree 5.2% 535 851 Median weekly Unemployment , level or above Total labour personal income rate 23.4% NSW force $664 NSW NSW: 6.3% average average Social Environment 38.4% 52.8% Households where People born a non-English 3,085 overseas 18,382 Domestic language is spoken Migrants in 2017 34.5% NSW assaults in 2018 at home average 26.5% NSW average Children, Young People and Families 7.3% 0.4% 4,382 717 Children Mothers giving Children and Children and developmentally birth aged 19 young people at young people in vulnerable on and under risk of significant out-of-home care 2 or more AEDC 1.9% NSW average harm 2016-17 2016-17 domains 2018 Disability Households and social housing 3.9% 16,541 13,129 People need 2.5 Social housing Public and AHO Average no. assistance with dwellings, housing tenancies of people per core activity June 2018 - June 2018 household 5.4% NSW 8.3% of NSW 8.8% of NSW 2.6 NSW average average dwellings tenancies All data sources are available throughout this report.
