In 2023, about 7.1 percent of the population of the Australian state of Queensland was between 30 and 34 years old. In comparison, just 1.9 percent of the population was over the age of 85.

In June 2022, it was estimated that around 7.3 percent of Australians were aged between 25 and 29, and the same applied to people aged between 30 and 34. All in all, about 55 percent of Australia’s population was aged 35 years or older as of June 2022. At the same time, the age distribution of the country also shows that the share of children under 14 years old was still higher than that of people over 65 years old. A breakdown of Australia’s population growth Australia is the sixth-largest country in the world, yet with a population of around 26 million inhabitants, it is only sparsely populated. Since the 1970s, the population growth of Australia has remained fairly constant. While there was a slight rise in the Australian death rate in 2022, the birth rate of the country decreased after a slight rise in the previous year. The fact that the birth rate is almost double the size of its death rate gives the country one of the highest natural population growth rates of any high-income country.
National distribution of the population Australia’s population is expected to surpass 28 million people by 2028. The majority of its inhabitants live in the major cities. The most populated states are New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland. Together, they account for over 75 percent of the population in Australia.

The Health Services subdivision encompasses various health facilities and services. General hospitals generate more than half Australia's health services revenue. Other key revenue sources include general practitioners (GPs), clinical specialists and dentists. While demand for health services has surged in response to Australia’s ageing population, the pandemic created mixed demand within healthcare industries. Pathology services experienced strong revenue growth during 2020-21, whereas psychiatric hospital revenue dropped during the same period. In 2024, service provision has recovered as healthcare systems adapt to the ongoing challenges, including the integration of telehealth. This technological advancement, along with improved access to services, is expected to provide a steady boost to revenue. Revenue in this subdivision is expected to have expanded at an annualised 0.5% over the five years through 2024-25 to $217.3 billion. While the pandemic initially disrupted services and redirected resources, the only significant revenue drop occurred in 2022-23, when cost-of-living pressures and the lingering effects of the pandemic, including workforce shortages and healthcare disruptions, negatively impacted the subdivision. Despite these setbacks, revenue is projected to climb 1.0% in 2024-25, spurred by an ageing population and ongoing demand for healthcare services. Profit margins have shrunk over the past few years, tied closely to rising wage costs throughout the Health Services subdivision. Over the coming years, Australia's ageing population will continue driving demand for health services. The recent re-indexation of Medicare rebates for services provided by general practitioners, specialists and diagnostic imaging will support revenue growth in these areas. An increasing number of Australians are taking out private health insurance for hospitals and general treatment, strengthening the provision of private healthcare services. In addition to greater uptake of private coverage, expanded federal funding for Medicare is a key driver in why revenue for the Health Services subdivision is projected to grow at an annualised 3.0% over the five years through 2029-30 to $251.3 billion, highlighting the need for strategic planning and resource allocation.

The University and Other Higher Education industry is grappling with the post-pandemic landscape. The COVID-19 outbreak significantly shifted the industry's demand and delivery methods. Social distancing requirements and operational constraints caused most universities to pivot online. Remote learning has remained embedded into teaching post-pandemic, providing convenience for students and profitability benefits for universities. A heightened focus on research during the pandemic offset revenue lost from declines in tuition fees. This trend has been slowing and is under additional threat from a US Government that appears intent on reducing its funding for foreign-based research, to the detriment of Australian institutions. The industry's labour market has been volatile as the pandemic pushed universities to increasingly casualise their workforces. Controversies over underpayment have led to reputational damage and strikes among major Australian universities. Melbourne University's enforceable agreement with the Fair Work Ombudsman to pay more than $72.0 million to over 25,000 staff highlights the magnitude of these disputes. Economic and demographic factors have aided the industry's post-pandemic recovery despite these pressures. A depreciating Australian dollar has benefited returning international students, while growth in the population of people aged 18 to 25 has bolstered domestic enrolments. Lower secondary school retention rates, slipping during the pandemic, are dampening this growth. Overall, revenue is expected to drop at an annualised 1.9% to an estimated $38.8 billion over the five years through 2024-25. This trend includes a 0.6% drop in revenue anticipated for 2024-25. The outlook for the industry is promising, driven by changing labour market conditions and demographic trends. Stricter visa requirements to control migration will pose challenges. However, the industry will face these constrictions by constructing new student accommodation facilities, allowing institutions to enrol international students beyond their designated cap. The consolidation of the University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia into Adelaide University in 2026 will intensify competition for enrolments, particularly from international students, given its ambitious ranking goals. These factors mean revenue is forecast to climb at an annualised 2.1% to $43.1 billion through the end of 2029-30.

Trends in population growth, water availability, government infrastructure funding and mining developments principally drive the performance of the Water and Waste Services Infrastructure Construction industry. Australia is vulnerable to protracted droughts, which encourages public investment to improve water security, including the construction of desalination, re-use and recycling plants and irrigation and storage projects. Coal seam gas (CSG) extraction, iron ore and coal mining drive investment in water treatment plants, recycling and water supply pipelines. The construction of water and sewerage infrastructure surged to a peak in 2022-23 as governments invested in delivering water security, urban treatment plants to service the expanding population settlement and the rollout of extensive irrigation and pipeline projects by the National Water Grid Fund (NWGF). All tiers of government have lifted capital expenditure on water storage, treatment and irrigation facilities to improve national water security. At the same time, resource companies have funded water supply pipelines and treatment plants to service the Pilbara region of Western Australia and the CSG fields of Central Queensland. Over the past five years, industry revenue is expected to edge upwards at an annualised 0.7% to reach $9.0 billion in 2024-25, including the recent sharp contraction on the completion of several prominent projects. Industry revenue is expected to fall by 2.3% in 2024-25. Industry profitability has gradually strengthened despite the escalation in input prices due to supply chain disruptions. The industry's prospects remain solid despite the several landmark developments being put on the back burner, including the Hell's Gate and Urannah Dam projects in north Queensland. Industry revenue is forecast to climb at an annualised 1.6% through the end of 2029-30 to reach $9.7 billion. Several large-scale developments like the Upper South Creek Advanced Water Recycling Centre in Western Sydney and desalination plants in Western Australia and New South Wales will support high levels of water and waste infrastructure construction. Industry activity will also be underpinned by NWGF funding for water projects of national significance, including irrigation projects in South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania.
