Introduction

In December Quarter 1991, the unemployment rate for Australia was 9.5 per cent, the highest since the 1982-83 recession and one of the highest rates since 1 the Great Depression of 1929-33 , when the unemployment rate in Australia 2 climbed to 19.7 per cent • The burden of unemployment, however, does not fall evenly across all geographic areas of Australia. For example, in the December Quarter 1991, Ku-ring-gai (NSW) had an unemployment rate of 2.5 per cent whereas in Elizabeth (SA) it was as high as 23.8 per cent (which exceeds the unemployment rate reached by Australia during the Depression). 3 The purpose of this paper is to show, in map form , how unemployment is distributed acrossAustralia. This is done in 2 ways: • by mapping the unemployment rate in the December Quarter 1991 of each Local Government Area (LGA) in Australia; and • by mapping the percentage growth in the number of unemployed persons in the 18 months to December Quarter 1991 4 in each LGA in Australia. The unemployment estimates on which these maps are based are those produced by the Department of Employment, Education and Training (DEET) and which appear in its quarterly publication entitled Small Area Labour Markets - Australia. The DEET estimates of unemployed persons and unemployment rates for LGAs are derived from ABS Labour Force Survey results which are published monthly for 60 geographical regions in Australia. The DEET estimates are generated using a technique based on the Structure Preserving Estimation methodology developed initially by Purcell and Kish (1979) and investigated further at the Australian Bureau of Statistics by Feeney (1985).

lIn the 3 months to March 1992, the unemployment rate for Australia rose to 11.3 per cent, making this the highest unemployment rate since the Great Depression. 2Vamplew, Wray (cd.). Australians -flistorical Statistics. Broadway: Fairfax, Syme and Weldon Associates, 1987:152. 3Legend values for each map have been selected so that approximately 25 per cent of all Local Government Areas (on an Australia-wide basis) fall within each of the specified range ofvalues. 4 A comparison over the 12 months to December Quarter 1991 would have been preferred, but the necessary data were unavailable. 2 Atlas of Unemployment
