INTRODUCTION
The ABS Census of Population and Housing provides a comprehensive picture of Australia's people, how they live and where they reside. Data is provided through a series of products including QuickStats, Community Profiles, DataPacks and TableBuilder. The following templates show the standard tables that will be available when the data is released, starting on 27 June 2017. Users can now identify how the data will be made available as part of Census products and plan requirements for any customised tables.
Customised Data Services are for users to request customised datasets via the online Information Consultancy Form. This is a charged service (in accordance with Commonwealth Cost Recovery Guidelines).
Please note that when the data is released from June 27, the totals in the tables may not equal the sum of the contributing cell values. This is a result of perturbation, a technique applied to ABS outputs that makes small random adjustments to cell values to avoid the release of confidential information. The size of the difference between a total and the sum of the perturbed cells will generally be very small.
