Population growth trends

How has WA’s population grown?

Over 500,000 new residents in Western Australia in the last decade

Perth has been a magnet for overseas migrants (also Major Mining Projects) – 457 Visas

Historically WA gains population from other states, though in last two years has lost population to Queensland and Victoria in particular

WA is ageing but at a lower rate than expected as overseas migration gains and more births have supplemented the population under 40

Births continue to exceed deaths, but less natural increase over time, and more older people

Mining Investment

What has changed?

Decline in the mining industry impacting on migration to WA

Net overseas migration has declined after the highs of the boom period and the share to WA has decreased as New South Wales has recovered and Victoria’s has become more attractive, return of 457 visa holders

Unprecedented losses through internal migration in 2016 ( -7,700) after averaging +3,500 in the previous decade

Fertility rates have started to fall again, leading to a more stable number of births

The last word

ConclusionsPopulation growth is expected to return to stronger levels over the next few years, with iron ore prices recovering and gas investment likely to boom again, given global demand

However, Western Australia is more than mining - attractive in terms of its lifestyle, environment and as a place of economic growth – migration will bounce back

Understanding macro trends is important, but for service delivery, the devil is in the detail

SAFi drills down to the local level and identifies / visualises major pockets of dwelling and population growth and distinguishes

SAFi distinguishes between housing markets in migration and housing structure to aid in age based service provision
