DATA AVAILABILITY BY YEAR AND GEOGRAPHY

The following two tables summarise content in the National Regional Profile (NRP). In particular they show which years and geographies the NRP data series are available for, to assist easier searching across a large volume of data.

Users should note that some data are not available for all reference years, for a variety of reasons. For example; there may be conceptual breaks in a data series; the collection frequency may be irregular; some series may have revisions pending; or permission to publish in the NRP may have only been granted recently. In addition, some data series are not available for the full range of geographies. The reasons can include: data owner or custodian preferences; industry identification with a few, particular geographies only; confidentiality protection; and the presence of many suppressed data cells (at smaller geographic levels) thus making true aggregations up to larger ASGS regions difficult.

(b) Data for Protected Land Areas are sourced from the Collaborative Australian Protected Area Database, (Dept of the Environment).

To enable a compact presentation, data from the 2011 Population Census have not been tabled above. Nonetheless Census information is included across the National Regional Profile. For example, the Economy topic includes 2011 data on monthly rent and mortgage payments, the regional labour force and youth engagement in work and study, while the Industry topic includes industry of employment counts. Additionally, the Population/People topic includes 2011 Census data on internal migration, unpaid work involvement, home internet access, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander identity, the overseas born, people with post-school qualifications, occupation of employed persons, method of travel to work, and family and household types.
