Interesting Publications


It's a new year, and the ABS has an entire website of exciting statistics for you to explore. To give you a taste of what the ABS has to offer, the publications below are some that I have found particularly interesting this month.

The Schools publication is published annually, and contains data about schools and students. The main article is a commentary on student numbers. Data is drawn from the National Schools Statistics Collection (NSSC) which is managed by the ABS.

This publication has just been released. The crime victimisation publication looks at personal and household crime, as well as crime victimisation by state.

Household Energy Consumption Survey, Australia: Summary of Results, 2012 (cat. no. 4670.0)
This publication contains really interesting statistics on household energy consumption in Australia. A feature of the publication that I found especially interesting was the comparison of dwelling energy, fuel consumption, and total energy expenditure by State and Territory. This publication covers topics including economic resources, dwelling characteristics, family composition of households and climates affects on household energy use.
