Australia’s population will reach a “projected” twenty three million today, Tuesday 23rd April 2013.

22,999,515

Those working in regional development, government and community understand the strategic challenges and opportunities changes in population and demographics brings.

On a personal note, we contributed to this total exactly sixteen years ago today!! [Grin]

Notes:

This projection is based on the estimated resident population at 30 September 2012 and assumes growth since then of:

  • one birth every 1 minute and 44 seconds,
  • one death every 3 minutes and 32 seconds ,
  • a net gain of one international migration every 2 minutes and 19 seconds, leading to
  • an overall total population increase of one person every 1 minute and 23 seconds .
