Australia's Population

Australia is a profoundly developed country present in the twenty-first century. This country has one of the highest percentages of people living in urban cities in the world. This is mainly because of the types of professions that are the most prevalent Australia, which are in the service sector. This helps us visualize Australia’s way of life and figure out what is effecting factors the most. In addition, demographic indicators such as the Crude Birth Rate and Rate of Natural Increase, help to determine why correlations may be occurring and, also the countries way of dealing with the population issues. In Australia’s case, they have a very low population for land that it obtains, and the government was trying to promote child birth so that …show more content…
Australia has a Crude Birth Rate of 13 as of 2014, however in 2004 Australia’s Crude Birth Rate was at an all-time low 12.3. This is related to the fertility rate in 2001 Australia had an all-time low fertility rate of 1.7, which was then increased to 1.98 by 2008, and leveled out at 1.86 in 2014. These increases were because of the government introducing the Baby Bonus which basically gave the parents a stipend for having a child, which lasted for d. This was the governments way of encouraging an increase in the young population, which is very small. Australia’s land mass and low population was partially the reason to increase the population. Furthermore, the Rate of Natural Increase (RNI) is another defining demographic which allows us to see the how the birth and death rate relate to each other by giving us the value in which the population is increasing or decreasing. For Australia, it has an RNI of +.6 which means that the population is not even increasing by 1 person. Compared to the world which is increasing +1.2. This tells us that for every person dying that they is one …show more content…
Australia’s population pyramid or 1990, 2016, and 2050, is representations between early and late stage 4 according to the Demographic transition model. This tells us that Australia’s population growth is slowing down, and most the population falls within the working class. This trend tells us that the working class is increasing this way because of migration, given that we know Australia’s fertility rate is fairly low. However, as the years go on Australia shows a major increase in the population of the youth which we can infer that more people are having babies within Australia. The slow growth of the youth population has a lot to do with the type of work that most people are
