ABS Releases Snapshot of Victorian Regions Tomorrow

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) will release its annual snapshot of rural and regional Victoria at a luncheon in Bendigo tomorrow.

The publication Regional Statistics, Victoria (cat. no. 1362.2) contains comparative key social and economic conditions including income, expenditure, leisure activities, use of health and education facilities, local government accounts, water use, environmental expenditure, performance of key industries, demographic information and climate.

Accompanying the ABS publication is a series of 2001 Regional Profiles for Victoria. The profiles contain statistical information for South-Western Victoria, Western Victoria, Northern Victoria, North-Eastern Victoria and Gippsland regions.

Media serving regional and rural Victoria will find a range of relevant small area information, including some which is specific to local government areas.
