Inequality in Australia


The Guardian has mapped out the percentage of people living in the most economically advantaged households and the number living in the most disadvantaged households in each Australian neighborhood.

The Guardian's Inequality in Australia interactive map use the experimental Index of Household Advantage and Disadvantage, which is in turn compiled from data from the 2016 Census of Population and Housing. The map has two different data layers. One shows the percentage of households living in the most disadvantaged group (the lowest quartile of the index). The other shows the percentage of households in the most advantaged group (the highest quartile of the index).

The Guardian hasn't provided much commentary alongside the map, except to say that the highest percentage of disadvantaged households are in remote and regional areas where a relatively "large proportion of the population is Indigenous". They also say that the areas with the most advantaged households are in inner metropolitan areas.


This static map (from Wikipedia) shows the number of Aboriginal Australians as a percentage of the population based on the 2011 census. Comparing the two maps there does seem to be a large percentage of households living in the most disadvantaged quartile in areas with a higher number of Aboriginal Australians as a percentage of the population.
