The first release of the Australian census data showed big increases in population in city suburbs and tree-change areas.
Now, with the second tranche of census data released on Thursday, we can see figures on internal migration – that is, where people are moving from, and to, in Australia.
The census data tells us the usual place of residence, and the place of residence both one and five years ago. By combining the two, we’re able to show where people have moved from for any given state or local government area.
