Age profile of settlers from China in 2010
Okay. So while we all wait with baited breath for the 2011 ABS census, I’ve found another awesome source of up-to-date stats about Chinese ministry. It’s from the ‘Settlement Reporting’ online tool at the Department of Immigration.
Here for instance is a graph showing you the number of people who settled in Australia in the 2010 calendar year, who were born in China. And the strange age brackets are not my fault…
And in case you really want it, here is a table with that data.
| Age on arrival | 00-05 | 06-11 | 12-15 | 16-17 | 18-24 | 25-34 | 35-44 | 45-54 | 55-64 | 65+ |
| Place of birth: China | 980 | 817 | 707 | 370 | 3280 | 4753 | 2791 | 2210 | 1807 | 1192 |
This is useful because it gives us a pretty up to date snapshot of what migration is like right now. Last year, 18,907 additional people who were born in China decided to settle in Australia!

Hi, Andrew,
Thank you so much for your research, it’s very encouraging and helpful for me in starting a Christian counselling service for the problem gambler.
