About the community profile 77

The Estimated Resident Population is the OFFICIAL City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters population for

2012.

Populations are counted and estimated in various ways. The most comprehensive population count available in

Australia is derived from the Census of Population and Housing conducted by the Australian Bureau of

Statistics every five years. However the Census count is NOT the official population of the City of Norwood

Payneham and St Peters. To provide a more accurate population figure which is updated more frequently than

every five years, the Australian Bureau of Statistics also produces "Estimated Resident Population" (ERP)

numbers for the City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters.

See data notes for a detailed explanation of different population types, how they are calculated and when to

use each one.

Settlement history

Settlement of the area dates from the late 1830s when land was first surveyed. In the early years, development was

located in the areas closest to Adelaide, with the land used mainly for farming, market gardens, flour mills, dairies,

orchards, nurseries and potteries. Villages were established at Kensington, Kent Town, Marryatville, Norwood and

Payneham. Growth was aided by the introduction of the horse-drawn tram from Adelaide and a development boom in

the 1880s which resulted in many market gardens being subdivided. There was substantial commercial development

and some residential growth in the inter-war period. Most of the land in the northern section (along the river) was not

subdivided until well into the 1900s, as it was held by the South Australian Company. Significant residential

development occurred in the post-war years of the 1950s and 1960s, spurred by the influx of migrants who were

attracted by the cheap housing in the older suburbs. During this period many of the grand houses in Norwood were

acquired by institutions or government agencies and the old sections of Kensington, Kent Town and West Norwood

were identified as slums and targeted for renewal. Light industry replaced some older housing areas in the 1960s and

1970s. Kensington and Norwood became a favourite for students and professionals because of the availability of

cheap historic housing. The population of the area was fairly static during the 1990s at about 32,000. The population

then increased slightly, rising to over 33,000 in 2006, and then to over 34,000 in 2011. The municipality is fully

developed, with new housing construction usually being redevelopment or urban infill.

The proportion of people providing unpaid care for the aged and disabled in the City of Norwood Payneham and St

Peters can be an important indicator of the level of demand for aged care services and facilities by local and state

governments. An increasing proportion of carers among the population may indicate inadequate aged care provision,

or the need for in-home support, or support for the carers themselves. The level of care provided by individuals is

likely to be affected by Household Income, Age Structure and the ethnic makeup of the community (Language

Spoken), as well as the sense of community cohesiveness.

Households form the common 'economic unit' in our society. The City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters's

Household Income is one of the most important indicators of socio-economic status. With other data sources, such as

Educational Qualifications and Occupation, it helps to reveal the economic opportunities and socio-economic status

of the City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters. It is important to note that income data is not necessarily a measure

of wealth. For example, if an area has a large number of retirees this will produce a higher proportion of households

with low income but the retirees may have large capital wealth. For this reason, household income should be viewed

in conjunction with Age and Household Composition.

The size of households in general follows the life-cycle of families. Households are usually small at the stage of

relationship formation (early marriage), and then increase in size with the advent of children. They later reduce in size

again as these children reach adulthood and leave home. Household size can also be influenced by a lack (or

abundance) of affordable housing. Overseas migrants and indigenous persons often have a tradition of living with

extended family members which significantly affects household size.

Household size in Australia has declined since the 1970s but between 2006 and 2011, the average household size

remained stable for the nation as a whole.

An increasing household size in an area may indicate a lack of affordable housing opportunities for young people, an

increase in the birth rate or an increase in family formation in the area. A declining household size may indicate

children leaving the area when they leave home, an increase in retirees settling in the area, or an attraction of young

singles and couples to the area.

For greater insight, the City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters's Household Size data should be viewed in

conjunction with Household Summary, Age Structure, Dwelling Type, Household Income and Language Spoken at

Mortgage repayments are directly related to house prices in the City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters, length of

occupancy and the level of equity of home owners. When viewed with Household Income data it may also indicate the

level of housing stress households in the community are under. In mortgage belt areas it is expected that households

will be paying a higher proportion of their income on their housing compared to well-established areas. First home

buyer areas are also likely to have larger mortgages than upgrader areas where households move in with equity from

elsewhere.

Mortgage payment levels are not directly comparable over time because of inflation. For comparison of mortgage

payments over time, go to Housing Loan Quartiles.

The City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters SEIFA Index of Disadvantage measures the relative level of

socio-economic disadvantage based on a range of Census characteristics. It is a good place to start to get a

general view of the relative level of disadvantage in one area compared to others and is used to advocate for

an area based on its level of disadvantage.

The index is derived from attributes that reflect disadvantage such as low income, low educational attainment,

high unemployment, and jobs in relatively unskilled occupations. When targeting services to disadvantaged

communities, it is important to also look at these underlying characteristics as they can differ markedly between

areas with similar SEIFA scores and shed light on the type of disadvantage being experienced.

A higher score on the index means a lower level of disadvantage. A lower score on the index means a higher

level of disadvantage.

Demographic change across Australia is recorded by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) in the Census

collections every five years. Population experts, .id, analyse and convert these raw figures into stories of place to

inform council staff, community groups, investors, business, students and the general public.

The City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters Community Profile provides demographic analysis for the City and its

suburbs based on results from the 2011, 2006, 2001, 1996 and 1991 Censuses of Population and Housing. The

profile is updated with population estimates when the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) releases new figures such

as the annual Estimated Resident Population (ERP).

Suburb boundaries and Census questions change over time, but .id manages the data to ensure that there is an

accurate time series provided for the current geographic boundaries. You can read more about this in the Geography

Notes section.

Results for the City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters include population, age structure, ethnicity, ancestry,

religion, income, qualifications, occupations, employment, unemployment, disability, disadvantage, volunteering,

childcare, family structure, household structure, housing tenure, mortgage and rental payments, and the size and

type of the dwellings people live in.

The Community Profile presents this information in clear maps, tables and charts with concise factual commentary to

answer three important questions:

1. What are the characteristics of the people who live here?

2. How are they changing?

3. How do they compare to other areas?

This provides the basis for making evidence-based decisions about how to provide services for the community as it

changes.

You can be confident about the quality of the information as it is derived from Australian Bureau of Statistics data,

analysed and presented by population experts and funded by the City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters.
