After a variety of dramas, the results of the 2016 demographics were finally released. Let`s take a look at a few highlights.
How many people are there in Australia? How many Chinese?
- 23.4 million of the population of Australia, 1.2 million of the Chinese, accounting for 5% (yes, only 5%), want to occupy Australia? (it is too early);
- Sydney has 4.8 million people and four hundred and eighty thousand Chinese, accounting for 10%;
- Melbourne has 4.5 million people and three hundred and sixty thousand Chinese, accounting for 8%.
In the 2016 census, about 1/4 of the population was born overseas, the first time Asia was born in Asia than in Europe.
Remember, Australia is an immigrant country, so when the Chinese are 10% of Sydney`s population, they are still quite high. This is the source of the headline Daily Telegraph.
How many people were born overseas in Australia?
- About 1 / 4 of Australia`s population is born overseas, and 2 / 3 of Australians live in capital cities;
- New and Victorian immigrants account for 28 per cent of the population;

How many Chinese speakers can there be?
- 72.7% of all Australians speak English at home;
- The average figure is 2.2%;
- The Cantonese speakers each accounted for 1.2%;
Looking at this ratio, do you think it will work in Australia? (except Hurstville and Boxhill)

How many Muslim are there in Australia?
Half of the people in Australia say they are Christian. In 1991, 74% of people said they were Christian. The question of concern is, will Muslim`s population change Australia?

In a word, in big cities, the population of Muslim is about the same as that of Chinese.
