Recently I published a blog that looked at the importance of considering age alongside other social variables in order to give it more context. This blog will continue the age theme, but look at examples of different age structures across NSW. The data is sourced from the ABS release Regional Population by age and sex (ABS Cat. no. 3235.0) and as such uses the 2017 ERP (Estimated Resident Population - the official figure) rather than the Census figure.

Yorke Peninsula population trends
This week I'm taking a case study approach in my blog by focussing on South Australia's Yorke Peninsula. I recently spent a long weekend there, raising my curiosity levels with regards to its demographic characteristics. For those unfamiliar with the region, it's the part of South Australia located to the west of Adelaide that's shaped like a boot - ie the part that looks like Italy. The settlement pattern is dominated by agricultural landscapes with a number of small towns. What are the key demographic trends in this part of South Australia?
