SOCIO-ECONOMIC INDEXES FOR AREAS (SEIFA)

SEIFA will continue to be released as part of the Census output program. For the 2011 Census the SA1 will be the smallest SEIFA area available. SEIFA should not be used for time series comparison. However, SEIFA scores will be constructed and released for non-ABS structures to assist users transition to the ASGS.

A separate information paper on SEIFA will be published closer to the 2011 Census.
