The 1991 Census Expanded Community Profiles present 44 tables comprising more detailed information than that of the basic community profiles which provide characteristics of persons and/or dwellings for Local Government Areas (LGA) in Australia. This table contains data relating to family type by labour force status (part-time/full-time) of parent(s)/partners by annual family income. Counts are of one and two parent families, and couples without offspring, based on place of enumeration on census night which; includes overseas visitors; excludes Australians overseas; and excludes adjustment for under-enumeration. The data is by LGA 1991 boundaries. Periodicity: 5-Yearly. This data is ABS data (cat. no. 2101.0 & original geographic boundary cat. no. 1261.0.30.001) used with permission from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The tabular data was processed and supplied to AURIN by the Australian Data Archives. The cleaned, high resolution 1991 geographic boundaries are available from data.gov.au. For more information please refer to the 1991 Census Dictionary. Please note: (a) Full time is defined as having worked 35 hours or more in the main job held last week. (b) Comprises families where at least one, but not all, member(s) aged 15 years or more did not state an income and/or at least one spouse or offspring was temporarily absent. (c) Comprises families where no members presentstated an income. (d) Comprises families where the sole parent or both parents/partners in the couple were unemployed or not in the labour force. (e) Comprises families where one parent/partner was employed and stated his/her hours worked and the other parent/partner was either unemployed or not in the labour force. (f) Comprises families where one or both parents/partners did not state his/her labour force status and/or hours worked or a parent/partner was temporarily absent.

Migrants from the United Kingdom have long been Australia’s primary immigrant group and in 2023 there were roughly 960 thousand English-born people living in Australia. India and China held second and third place respectively with regard to Australia’s foreign-born population. The relative dominance of Asian countries in the list of top ten foreign-born residents of Australia represents a significant shift in Australia’s immigration patterns over the past few decades. Where European-born migrants had previously overshadowed other migrant groups, Australian migration figures are now showing greater migration numbers from neighboring countries in Asia and the Pacific. A history of migration Australia is often referred to as an ‘immigrant nation’, alongside the United States, Canada, and New Zealand. Before the Second World War, migrants to Australia were almost exclusively from the UK, however after 1945, Australia’s immigration policy was broadened to attract economic migrants and temporary skilled migrants. These policy changes saw and increase in immigrants particularly from Greece and Italy. Today, Australia maintains its status as an ‘’Immigrant nation’’, with almost 30 percent of the population born overseas and around 50 percent of the population having both that were born overseas. Australian visas The Australian immigration program has two main categories of visa, permanent and temporary. The permanent visa category offers three primary pathways: skilled, family and humanitarian. The skilled visa category is by far the most common, with more than a million permanent migrants living in Australia on this visa category at the last Australian census in 2021. Of the temporary visa categories, the higher education visa is the most popular, exceeding 180 thousand arrivals in 2023.

Social media presence plays an important role in Australia, with more than ** percent of Australians between the ages of 12 to 55 years old claiming to have an account on a social networking site. This high figure applies to senior citizens as well: more than **** the people above the age of 55 years have an account on a social networking platform. Most used social media platform   Australia has one the highest active social media penetration rates internationally, with most of the population holding an account on a social network platform. This is partially due to the country’s high internet penetration rate and heavy influence from the western world with regard to internet and social media trends. For a country of slightly more than 24 million people, it is estimated that more than ** million citizens have an account on a social media. Furthermore, Facebook dominates the market with more than double the number of users compared to the second-placed platform Instagram. Reasons for using social networking sites   There are various reasons that Australians use social networking sites with the main reason being to catch up/keep in touch with family and friends. While this applies to all age groups, the younger generation have more reasons to stay engaged on social media while the elderly mainly uses social media solely for friends and family.

Housing Affordability Supply and Demand Data. Number of South Australian households paying more than 30% of their household income on housing (rent or mortgage) broken down by very low, low and moderate income brackets. This dataset relates to section 4, Housing Stress, of the Affordability master reports produced by the SA Housing Authority. Each master report covers one Local Government Area and is entitled ‘Housing Affordability – Demand and Supply by Local Government Area’. The Demand for Supply for LGA reports are available online at: https://data.sa.gov.au/data/dataset/housing-affordability-demand-and-supply-by-local-government-area Explanatory Notes: Data sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), Census for Population and Housing and it is updated every 5 years in line with the ABS Census. The nature of the income imputation means that the reported proportion may significantly overstate the true proportion. Census housing stress data is best used in comparing results over Censuses (ie did it increase or decrease in an area) rather than using it to ascertain what proportion of households were in rental stress. Income bands are based on household income. High income households can also experience rental stress. These households are included in the total but not identified separately. Data is representative of households in very low, low and moderate income brackets. Please note that there are small random adjustments made to all cell values to protect the confidentiality of data. These adjustments may cause the sum of rows or columns to differ by small amounts from table totals.

The 1991 Census Expanded Community Profiles present 44 tables comprising more detailed information than that of the basic community profiles which provide characteristics of persons and/or dwellings for Statistical Local Areas (SLA) in Australia. This table contains data relating to family type by number of dependent offspring (usually resident) by annual parental income. Counts are of families with offspring, based on place of enumeration on census night which; includes overseas visitors; excludes Australians overseas; and excludes adjustment for under-enumeration. The data is by SLA 1991 boundaries. Periodicity: 5-Yearly. This data is ABS data (cat. no. 2101.0 & original geographic boundary cat. no. 1261.0.30.001) used with permission from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The tabular data was processed and supplied to AURIN by the Australian Data Archives. The cleaned, high resolution 1991 geographic boundaries are available from data.gov.au. For more information please refer to the 1991 Census Dictionary. Please note: (a) A maximum of 3 temporarily absent dependent offspring can be counted in each household. (b) Comprises two parent families where a parent present did not state their income or a parent was temporarily absent (c) Comprises cases where in a two parent family, both parents did not state their income or were temporarily absent; or in a one parent family, the parent did not state his/her income or was temporarily absent.

The most common poverty measures, including that used by the OECD, focus on income based approaches. One of the most common measures of income poverty is the proportion of households with income less than half median equivalised disposable household income (which is set as the poverty line); this is a relative income poverty measure as poverty is measured by reference to the income of others rather than in some absolute sense. Australia has one of the highest household disposable incomes in the world, which means that an Australian relative income poverty line is set at a high level of income compared to most other countries.

OECD statistics on Australian poverty 2015-16 (based on ABS Survey of Income and Housing data and applying a poverty line of 50% of median income) determined the Australian poverty rate was over 25% before taxes and transfers, but falls around 12% after taxes and transfers. Though measuring poverty through application of solely an income measure is not considered comprehensive for an Australian context, however, it does demonstrate that the Australian welfare system more than halves the number of Australians that would otherwise be considered as at risk of living in poverty under that measure.
It is important to consider a range of indicators of persistent disadvantage to understand poverty and hardship and its multidimensional nature. Different indicators point to different dimensions of poverty. While transient poverty is a problem, the experience of persistent poverty is of deeper concern, particularly where families experience intergenerational disadvantage and long-term welfare reliance. HILDA data from the Melbourne Institute of Applied Economic and Social Research shows the Distribution of number of years in poverty 2001–2015. The figure focuses on the longer term experience of working age adults and shows that while people do fall into poverty, only a small proportion of people are persistently poor.

In Australia, as in many western societies, repartnering is a relatively common experience following separation or divorce. The aim of the present study was to investigate to what extent Australian parents form new relationships post-separation, and under which socio-demographic conditions. It also sought to explore the relationship between repartnering and parental involvement, family dynamics, and family wellbeing, and whether any associations between each were dependent on parental gender and post-separation parenting arrangements. This research made use of new longitudinal data from the Child Support Reform Study, a national, random sample of separated Australian parents. Discrete-time event-analysis (the first stage of the analysis) revealed that within six years of separation, almost one third of separated parents had repartnered. Mothers were significantly less likely than fathers to repartner. So too were older separated parents, and/or those who had children in the household – though mothers and fathers were found to experience the effects of these characteristics differently. In addition, financial resources also mattered: full-time employment and home ownership were found to be particularly important for paternal repartnering. Mothers on higher annual incomes were more likely to repartner than mothers reliant on government income support. Furthermore, separated parents in households that included other adult family members had significantly lower odds of repartnering than households without other adult family members living there. In the second stage of the analysis, which made use of fixed effect models, repartnering was shown to involve both benefits and risks. Repartnering was generally associated with improvements to parents’ physical and emotional health, finances (especially for mothers), and overall life satisfaction. But repartnering was not without its costs: subtle but significant negative effects on co-parental communication and relationship quality, the mother–child relationship, and paternal parenting time were evident. The present study points to the value of using more sophisticated analytic approaches with longitudinal data, and the importance of including a greater range of post-separation parenting arrangements (including shared-time) to provide a more nuanced understanding of the role that repartnering plays in shaping family wellbeing following separation.

Strong communication and cooperation between the family and the school is one of the most important factors contributing to students’ learning, identity and well-being. Recently, research has indicated significant differences in approaches to family-school engagement and cooperation between developing, post-communist cultures and some modern, western societies. Schooling experiences in post-communist countries have little formal or informal emphasis on positive family-teacher interactions. In contrast, western democratic countries intend to promote a strong focus on positive interactions between parents and teachers. Family-school interactions in democratic contexts are mostly based on well-developed policies and formal guidelines in respect to parent involvement in the learning activities of children. This is especially important for the early years of schooling for children. To date, there is little evidence of family engagement with the learning of children or the communication between parents and teachers in Serbian schools. There is almost no indication in official policies and educational documents about the importance of family-school communication and engagement in the early years of schooling. This study used a qualitative research approach to explore parents’ and teachers’ perceptions and experiences of building and sustaining family-school partnerships in each context. Semi-structured questionnaires and follow-up interviews probing parents’ and teachers’ views and experiences of family-school relationships in early education were administered to parents and teachers in Serbia and in Australia. The results show: 1. Parents and teachers positively valued family-school interactions in early education; 2. Parents and teachers expressed a willingness for strong family-school communication and cooperation in early education; 3. Cultural aspects, such as history, tradition, and socio-economic status overwhelmingly shaped practices of family-school communication and cooperation; 4. Communication and cooperation models between parents and teachers during ‘transition to school’ and the early years of schooling were more common and frequent in Australia than in Serbia; 5. Family-school interactions via digital technology such as e-newsletters, mobile apps, and/or social network groups were widely used in the Australian context and were almost non-existent in Serbia; 6. Parents’ involvement in students’ learning including ‘transition to school’ programs, classroom and other school events, ‘learning at home’ activities, and/or ‘decision making’ procedures were more common in Australian schools than in Serbia; 7. Official policies on family-school communication and cooperation in the first years of schooling were well-developed in Australia and almost non-existent in Serbia; 8. Lack of time was a main challenge for the establishment and development of successful communication and cooperation between the family and teachers in the early years of schooling; and 9. Serbian participants emphasized lack of financial support for teachers (i.e. very low salaries) and the lack of official policy guidelines as additional barriers for initiating and building positive family-school engagements in early education. The understanding of the predominantly positive experiences of family-school communication and cooperation in Australia provided information to identify strategies that might be used to strengthen the existing models of communication between parents and teachers in Serbia during ‘transition to school’ and in the early years of schooling.
