WHAT'S NEW THIS MONTH

Topics which have been updated with new data in this month's issue of SA Stats include: Construction; Consumption; Demography; Housing Finance; International Merchandise Trade; Investment; Labour Force; State Accounts and Water.

This month's SA Stats article looks at one parent families with dependent children in South Australia. The article examines the characteristics of this type of family using data from the Census of Population and Housing. One parent families are often considered to be at a higher risk of social and economic disadvantage, especially in terms of income, employment and housing. Over the last decade, one parent families with dependent children have increased as a proportion of all families in South Australia.
