Electoral rankings: 2006 Census (2010 division boundaries)

Introduction
This research paper provides an analysis by Commonwealth electoral division of socio-
demographic data from the 2006 Census of Population and Housing. The electoral
boundaries used in this paper incorporate the recent redistributions that have occurred in New
South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia and Tasmania. These boundaries will be used at
the upcoming federal election expected to be held in 2010. 1

This paper is an updated version of an earlier paper that was based on the 2006 electoral
division boundaries. The 60 separate tables in this research paper cover a broad range of
census topics and broadly reflect the items frequently requested from the Parliamentary
Library.

Electoral division data used in this paper are derived from 2006 Census Collection District
(CCD) data that have been allocated to the 2009 electoral division of best fit and then
summed to create the new electoral divisions. The concordance between CCDs and 2009
division is based on Australian Electoral Commission data as at November 2009. The census
data at the CCD level are subject to confidentiality adjustments. This means there are small
differences in the electoral level data in this paper when compared with the earlier paper
because census data for the 2006 electoral divisions were directly available at the electoral
division level and were not subject to small area confidentiality adjustments.

The main features section of the paper describes how to interpret the tables and contains an
overview of some interesting points from some of the tables.

Data for each characteristic are presented in two separate tables. The first table lists each
electoral division alphabetically and shows the simple value of the characteristic. The second
table ranks each electoral division on the relative value of the characteristic and in most cases
the characteristic has been standardised (usually as a percentage of some total measure) to
provide a more meaningful measure. The ranking is in ascending order, i.e. lowest value to
highest value. A footnote is included with some tables where it is not obvious how a
characteristic has been defined. The political party that holds each division is also shown in
each table. For the states/territories where there has been a redistribution, the Coalition
(denoted LP/NP) is shown as the political party whereas in the other states/territories the
individual party is shown.

Appendix 1 contains the value and relative value of each characteristic for Australia and each
state and territory. This allows an individual electorate to be compared against the Australian
or state/territory average. However it should be noted that electorate level data do not sum to

1. The election must be held no later than 16 April 2011. See R Lundie, ‘Australian elections
timetable’, Background note, Parliamentary Library, Canberra, 2009, viewed 20 May 2010,

the state/territory total because some 2006 census data cannot be coded to a specific
electorate of usual residence but can be coded to a state/territory of usual residence.

Appendix 2 contains the demographic classification of each electorate as defined by the


Australian Electoral Commission. Each division is classified as being in one of four possible
socio-demographic categories:

• inner metropolitan divisions comprise well established built-up suburbs located in capital
cities;

• outer metropolitan divisions comprise areas of more recent suburban expansion;

• provincial divisions comprise areas with a majority of enrolments in major provincial


cities, or in non-metropolitan urban conglomerates; and

• rural divisions comprise areas without a majority of enrolments in major provincial cities.

Main features
This section provides an overview of some of the more interesting features of selected tables.

Table 1 – Total population

The seven divisions with the lowest population comprise all the divisions in Tasmania and
the Northern Territory.

Tasmania retains five electoral divisions due to the constitutional provision that guarantees a
minimum of five seats in the House of Representatives for each ‘Original State’.

The calculation of representation entitlement that last occurred in February 2009 resulted in
the Northern Territory having a quota of just over 1.5, resulting in an entitlement of two
seats. Consequently the two divisions in the Northern Territory have relatively small
populations.

Table 4 – Persons aged under 5 years

Of the 20 divisions with the lowest proportion of persons under 5 years of age, ten are held
by the ALP and nine are held by the Coalition; 15 of the 20 are inner metropolitan areas.

Of the 20 divisions with the highest proportion of persons under 5 years of age, 18 are held
by the ALP while two are held by the Coalition; 14 of the 20 are outer metropolitan areas.

The division with the highest proportion is Lingiari (8.8 per cent) followed by Greenway (8.2
per cent) and Chifley (8.2 per cent) while the division with the lowest proportion is Sydney
(4.1 per cent) followed by Melbourne (4.4 per cent). The Australian average figure is 6.3 per
cent.

Table 8 – Persons aged 65 years and over

Of the 20 divisions with the lowest proportion of persons aged 65 years and over, 17 are held
by the ALP while three are held by the Coalition; 13 of the 20 are outer metropolitan areas.

Of the 20 divisions with the highest proportion of persons aged 65 years and over, ten are
held by the ALP, nine are held by the Coalition while ten of the 20 are rural electorates with
another four located in provincial areas.

The division with the highest proportion is Lyne (21.2 per cent) followed by Hindmarsh (20.6
per cent) while the two Northern Territory seats have the lowest proportions—Lingiari (4.4
per cent) and Solomon (5.1 per cent). The Australian average figure is 13.3 per cent.

Table 12 – Persons of Christian religion

Of the ten divisions with the highest proportion of persons of Christian religion, eight are in
New South Wales and seven of the ten are rural areas while seven are held by the Coalition.

The three divisions with the highest proportion of persons of Christian religion are the rural
divisions of Riverina (80.3 per cent), Parkes (80.3 per cent) and Calare (79.5 per cent).

The divisions with the lowest proportion are Sydney (40.5 per cent), Melbourne Ports (41.3
per cent) and Melbourne (41.9 per cent). Nine of the ten divisions with the lowest proportion
are held by the ALP while the seven divisions with the lowest proportion are all located in the
Sydney or Melbourne region and six of the seven are inner metropolitan seats. The Australian
average is 63.9 per cent.

Table 14 – Persons of Islamic religion

The 20 divisions with the highest proportion of persons of Islamic religion are all ALP held
seats in metropolitan areas of Sydney and Melbourne. Divisions with a very high proportion
of overseas born persons also tend to have high proportions of persons of the various non-
Christian religions.

The division with the highest proportion of persons of Islamic religion is Blaxland (17.4 per
cent) followed by Watson (16.7 per cent) and Calwell (13.3 per cent).

There are 22 divisions that share having the lowest proportion of persons of Islamic religion
(0.1 per cent) with 18 of the 22 being in rural areas. The Australian average figure is 1.7 per
cent.

Table 16 – Persons of Indigenous origin

This table covers persons who self identify as being Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander or both
Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander on the census form.

3
Electoral rankings: 2006 Census (2010 division boundaries)

Of the ten divisions with the highest proportion of persons of Indigenous origin, eight are
rural while four are held by the ALP, four are held by the Coalition and two are held by
Independents. Of the 20 divisions with the highest proportion of Indigenous persons, only
two are in metropolitan areas (Solomon with 10.3 per cent and Franklin with 3.7 per cent).

The division with the highest proportion is Lingiari (43.5 per cent) which has more than twice
the concentration of the next highest division (Durack with 16.8 per cent). The Australian
average figure is 2.3 per cent.

Table 17 – Persons born overseas

Of the 30 divisions with the highest proportion of persons born overseas, only four are held
by the Coalition. The 50 divisions with the highest proportion are all metropolitan divisions
while only two of the 50 divisions with the lowest proportion are metropolitan.

Of the ten divisions with the highest proportion of persons born overseas, eight are in Sydney
with the other two in Melbourne.

The division with the highest proportion is Fowler (48.9 per cent) followed by Watson (47.4
per cent) while the division with the lowest proportion is Parkes (4.9 per cent) followed by
New England (5.8 per cent). The Australian average figure is 22.2 per cent.

Table 20 – Persons born in the United Kingdom or Ireland

Electorates ranked by the proportion of persons born in the United Kingdom (UK) or Ireland
exhibit a very different pattern to the ranking based on the more general measure of the
proportion of persons born overseas.

The three divisions with the lowest proportion of persons born in the UK and Ireland are the
Sydney metropolitan divisions of Fowler (1.2 per cent), Watson (1.3 per cent) and Blaxland
(1.4 per cent). However, these divisions are ranked in the top five divisions in terms of the
highest proportion of persons born overseas.

Of the 20 divisions with the highest proportion of persons born in the UK or Ireland, 11 are in
Western Australia and five are in South Australia. The division with the highest proportion is
Moore (21.1 per cent) followed by Brand (17.2 per cent). The Australian average is 5.5 per
cent.

Table 23 – Couple families with dependent children

Of the 20 divisions with the highest proportion of couple families with dependent children,
14 are located in outer metropolitan areas and 11 of the top 20 are held by the Coalition.

The divisions with the highest proportion are Mitchell (48.1 per cent), Berowra (47.7 per
cent) and Bradfield (46.3 per cent).

4

other six are outer metropolitan divisions.

The eight divisions with the lowest proportion comprise six divisions around Sydney (all held
by the Coalition) and the two divisions of the ACT (held by the ALP).

The division with the highest proportion is Cowper (36.9 per cent), followed by Hinkler (36.7
per cent) and Lyne (35.6 per cent). These three seats were held by the Nationals at the 2007
election although Lyne is now held by an Independent following a 2008 by-election.

The divisions with the lowest proportion are Warringah (9.1 per cent), Wentworth (9.1 per
cent) and Bradfield (9.6 per cent). The Australian average figure is 22.1 per cent.
