Executive summary
-
This paper, a companion to the Key Economic and Social Indicator Dashboard
published by the Parliamentary Library, provides tables and charts for a broad
range of social, demographic and economic indicators across all Australian
states and territories, and compares these with Australian averages.
-
Each table presents data for the past five financial years to 2022-23,
where available, while each chart plots data for the 2022-23 financial year or
latest available year.
-
The State Statistical Bulletin is published twice per year
covering data for either the previous financial year or calendar year.
Introduction
The purpose of this paper is to present a
range of economic and other statistical indicators for the states and
territories of Australia. To facilitate comparisons, indicators are presented
in relative terms such as growth rates, percentages, or proportions of gross
state product, so comparisons can be made using equivalent measures.
This publication is a companion to the Key
Economic and Social Indicator Dashboard which contains Australia-wide data
only, but on a more frequent basis.
A glossary of social, demographic and
economic terms used in the tables is provided at the end of this publication.
Data
Sources
Data sources are listed at the bottom of the
page for each indicator. All data is from an original ABS series unless
otherwise indicated as a trend or seasonally adjusted series.
Historical
Data
Long-term data series for every table in
this paper and for the Parliamentary Library’s companion publication, the Key
Economic and Social Indicator Dashboard is available electronically and can
be found on the Parliamentary Library’s Key Economic and Social Indicator
dashboard and State
Statistical Bulletin pages.
