Economic and social change has varied in its impact on different locations in Australia. This has given rise to concern about the patterns of inequality and the possibility of significant divergence in the economic and social outcomes for Australians living in different locations as structural change may have delivered benefits to some – at the cost of others.
Income and other data from the censuses of 1986, 1991, 1996 and 2001 will be used to estimate average levels of incomes for people living in each Statistical Local Government Area and compare patterns of change over time and the relative experiences of locations. Amongst the characteristics to be considered are the initial relative levels of income, industrial structure, urban form and remoteness.
