Nothing wrong with that. 10 years is too big a gap imo.
Although of course figures on things like immigration and where settlers go can be obtained from local government figures, even if not quite as accurate.
That is true. The silver lining to getting a young skilled migrant is that they usually just rent a room. Think about it, a young builder who merely rents a room and builds houses for a living is able to provide several homes in a single year. They give more than they take. This is why tradies and engineers are so essential
Of course if they perform what is written on the packet.
Begs the question just why are we running a huge immigration program. Census have been five years long before immigration was rammed up. I rather enjoy reading the results but they tend to be costly.
They were taken at 10 year periods in Australia 1911, 1921 were the first two, maybe the depression stopped the schedule 1931 census, regardless the next one after 1921 was in 1933. The one schedule for 10 years after that (1943) was delayed for very oblivious reasons until 1947. In the post WW2 period they increased it to 7 years taking them in 1954 and 1961 which is when it became 5.
If you're running high migration program then you can't really be doing it every 10 years. Its primary purpose after all is to set electoral boundaries.
It’s certainly very important for councils/ local government areas as well, to help with planning and infrastructure, where the boundaries don’t normally change for political reasons.
I think they went to every 5 years after 1961. So it was during a period of very high immigration. Probably could do 7 years, but 10 seems a stretch.
I agree seven years could fit the bill. But as for high immigration, the reason some appear to suggest why the time period, surely the USA is also a high immigration country that finds ten years adequate?.
Anyway it won't be too long now before England is replaced as the second country of birth (after Australia) by India. That's an amazing rise considering India was well down the list in the early 00s , contributing only 6,000 migrants a year.
But the big rise is Nepal which I believe doubled in number over five years to enter the top ten.

The Nepalese are very highly sought as workers in hospitals and aged care facilities. I will never forget the kindness of the Nepalese staff to my mother, when she was dying of dementia. There are a lot of Nepalese restaurants and food shops fairly near to us in the St George area of Sydney.

Nepalese run the kitchens in Sydney and Melbourne.

A flood of students from Nepal as well. Seems most want to stay. Interesting how this small nation came to prominence in Australian immigration figures. Barely aware of a single Nepalese in the 00's. Now cross paths with a number in Perth.
