Population clock
  

    On 21 March 2010 at 03:25:40 AM (Canberra time), the resident population of Australia is projected to be:

    22,194,345
This projection is based on the estimated resident population at 30 June 2009 and assumes growth since then of:
  • one birth every 1 minute and 45 seconds,
  • one death every 3 minutes and 40 seconds,
  • a net gain of one international migrant every 1 minute and 51 seconds leading to
  • an overall total population increase of one person every 1 minute and 11 seconds.

These assumptions are consistent with figures released in Australian Demographic Statistics, June Quarter 2009 (cat. no. 3101.0).
