The statistic shows the total population of Australia from 1980 to 2023, with projections up until 2030. In 2023, Australia had a total population of about 26.95 million people. Population of Australia Australia is among the ten largest countries in the world, in terms of area size, although its total population is low in relation to this. Much of Australia’s interior remains uninhabited, as the majority of Australians live in coastal metropolises and cities. Most of the population is of European descent (predominantly British), although there is a growing share of the population with Asian heritage; only a small percentage belongs to the indigenous Aboriginal population. Australia's year-on-year population growth is fairly high compared to most other economically and demographically advanced nations, due to comparatively high rates of natural increase and immigration. Living standards Standard of living is fairly high in Australia, which can be seen when looking at the Human Development Index, which ranks countries by their level of human development and living standards, such as their unemployment rate, literacy rate, or life expectancy at birth. Life expectancy of Australia’s population is quite high in international comparison, for example, Australia is also among the leading countries when it comes to this key factor. Economically speaking, Australia is also among the leading nations, with a steadily rising employment rate, an increasing gross domestic product (GDP) with a steady growth rate, and a relatively stable share in the global GDP.

This dataset, released February 2020, contains the total Population projections for years 2020, 2025 and 2030, by 5-year age groups: 0-14, 15-24, 25-44, 45-64, 65+, 70+, 75+, 85+ years. The data is by Population Health Area (PHA) 2016 geographic boundaries based on the 2016 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS). Population Health Areas, developed by PHIDU, are comprised of a combination of whole SA2s and multiple (aggregates of) SA2s, where the SA2 is an area in the ABS structure.

Whereas the population is expected to decrease somewhat until 2100 in Asia, Europe, and South America, it is predicted to grow significantly in Africa. While there were 1.5 billion inhabitants on the continent at the beginning of 2024, the number of inhabitants is expected to reach 3.8 billion by 2100. In total, the global population is expected to reach nearly 10.4 billion by 2100. Worldwide population In the United States, the total population is expected to steadily increase over the next couple of years. In 2024, Asia held over half of the global population and is expected to have the highest number of people living in urban areas in 2050. Asia is home to the two most populous countries, India and China, both with a population of over one billion people. However, the small country of Monaco had the highest population density worldwide in 2021. Effects of overpopulation Alongside the growing worldwide population, there are negative effects of overpopulation. The increasing population puts a higher pressure on existing resources and contributes to pollution. As the population grows, the demand for food grows, which requires more water, which in turn takes away from the freshwater available. Concurrently, food needs to be transported through different mechanisms, which contributes to air pollution. Not every resource is renewable, meaning the world is using up limited resources that will eventually run out. Furthermore, more species will become extinct which harms the ecosystem and food chain. Overpopulation was considered to be one of the most important environmental issues worldwide in 2020.

The gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in Australia was estimated at about 66.25 thousand U.S. dollars in 2024. From 1980 to 2024, the GDP per capita rose by approximately 55.24 thousand U.S. dollars, though the increase followed an uneven trajectory rather than a consistent upward trend. Between 2024 and 2030, the GDP per capita will rise by around 8.64 thousand U.S. dollars, showing an overall upward trend with periodic ups and downs.This indicator describes the gross domestic product per capita at current prices. Thereby, the gross domestic product was first converted from national currency to U.S. dollars at current exchange rates and then divided by the total population. The gross domestic product is a measure of a country's productivity. It refers to the total value of goods and service produced during a given time period (here a year).

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.

This statistic displays the projected number of households in Australia from 2016 to 2041. According to the source, Australia was projected to have approximately 13.2 million households by 2041. In 2016, this value was estimated at around 9.2 million households.
