NOTES ON THE DATA
Terminology
Birthplace Groups
South Sudan listed as a separate country in 2011. Formerly part of Sudan.Kosovo listed as a separate country in 2011. Formerly part of Serbia.Guernsey and Jersey were listed separately in 2011. Formerly combined as "Channel Islands".
Timor-Leste (2011) formerly known as East Timor.Kyrgyzstan (2011) formerly known as Kyrgyz Republic.
Confidentiality and Introduced Random Error
iv
The following notes relate to the Birthplace Community Profiles, and detail some important considerations regarding the classifications used and comparability issues between census years. For more general information about what is collected in the Census, and the meaning of various categories, please see the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Census Dictionary, 2011 (Catalogue No 2901.0) on the ABS Website www.abs.gov.au.
Note that in the descriptions below, "nfd" stands for "Not Further Defined", and "nec" stands for "Not Elsewhere Classified".
All birthplace groups are defined as per the "Country of Birth of Individual" classification in the 2011 Census Dictionary. Please take note of the following, to assist with making time series comparisons:
The above are not the complete list of changes. More details can be found from the Standard Australian Classification of Countries SACC (2011), Catalogue No 1269.0, on the ABS website www.abs.gov.au.
For the 2006 Census, a new technique was developed to avoid identification of individuals. The confidentiality technique applied by the ABS is to slightly adjust all cells to prevent any identifiable data being exposed. These adjustments result in small introduced random errors. The technique allows very large tables, for which there is a strong client demand, to be produced even though they contain numbers of very small cells. Details of the exact nature of the methodology applied are available from the ABS on request.
Modifications are made to totals and subtotals to preserve additivity within tables. Tables which have been randomly adjusted will be internally consistent. However, comparisons with other tables containing similar data may show minor discrepancies. This is the case for both customised tables and standard products. These small variations can, for the most part, be ignored.
Care should be taken when specifying tables to minimise the number of small cells. No reliance should be placed on small cells. Aside from the effects of introduced random error, possible respondent and processing errors have greatest relative impact on small cells.
More information on random error in particular can be found in the 2011 Census Dictionary (cat. no. 2901.0), on page 225 in 'Introduced random error'. More general information on data quality can be found in the same publication on pages 18-21 in the chapter on 'Managing Census Quality'.
Victorian Community Profiles: 2011 Census
Local Government Areas and new ABS Geography
Religion
Religion is the only Census question that is optional.
Proficiency in EnglishThis classifies each person's self-assessed proficiency in spoken English.
CitizenshipRecords whether a person has Australian citizenship.
Indigenous Status
Year of Arrival
The year 2011 refers to the period from 1st January 2011 to 9th August 2011 only.
Labour Force StatusRecords, for the week prior to Census Night, a person's labour force status.
Industry
Occupation
Agriculture;Culture and Leisure;Health;Hospitality and Tourism; andInformation and Communications Technology (ICT).
The Australian Standard Geographical Classification (ASGC) is being replaced by the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) as the Australian Bureau of Statistics' new geographical framework. The ASGS was used for release of data from the 2011 Census of Population and Housing, however 2011 Census data will also be available on ASGC Statistical Local Areas (SLAs). The vast majority of ABS spatial data will be based on the ASGS by 2014.
The Local Government Area (LGA) is part of the Non-ABS Structure of the ASGS and the ABS will continue to support LGAs with the data it currently provides. There was only one boundary change between Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Victoria between 2006 and 2011. In 2008, the LGA of Melbourne was enlarged to include a portion from Moonee Valley. For the purposes of these reports, the 2006 LGAs have been best fitted to the new 2011 boundaries to assist with time series comparisons.
Alternative views of ANZSCO, First Edition, Revision 1 are available for the following subsets of occupations:
Religions are coded using the Australian Standard Classification of Religions Groups (ASCRG), Second Edition, Revision 1, 2011 (Catalogue No. 1266.0)
Provides responses of persons who identified themselves as being of Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander origin.
For people born overseas, states the year they first arrived in Australia, with the intention of staying for at least one year. The variable Country of Birth of Person (BPLP) is the basis for determining if a person was born in Australia or overseas.
Note that the category, 'Employed, away from work' also includes persons who stated they worked but who did not state their number of hours worked.
Coded using the Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC), 2006 (Revision 1.0)
Coded using the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO), First Edition, Revision 1. The Occupation code assigned to a response is based on the occupation title and tasks of the main job held during the week prior to Census Night.

Internet Connection
Level of Highest Educational Attainment
Voluntary Work
It excludes work done: as part of paid employment if main reason is to qualify for Government benefit in a family business.
Individual IncomeIndicates the total income that the person usually receives each week from all sources.
Tenure Type
Family Composition
Core Activity Need for AssistanceMeasures the number of people with a profound or severe disability.
Usual Address 5 years ago
People with a profound or severe disability are defined as those people needing help or assistance in one or more of the three core activity areas of self-care, mobility and communication, because of a disability, long term health condition (lasting six months or more) or old age.
Derived from the mark box answer to the question on the 2011 Census forms which asks, 'Where did the person usually live five years ago (at 9 August 2006)?'. This variable when used with Usual Address Census Night Indicator (UAICP), Usual Address One Year Ago Indicator (UAI1P), and also with place of usual residence (PURP) data, shows migration patterns.
Records whether a dwelling has an Internet connection, regardless of whether or not it is paid for by the household. Where a dwelling has more than one type of connection, respondents are asked to report the most frequently used type. Only one type is recorded.
Combines Non-School Qualification: Level of Education (QALLP) and Highest Year of School Completed (HSCP) to produce a single measure of a person's overall level of educational attainment, whether it be a school or non-school qualification.
Records people who spent time doing unpaid voluntary work through an organisation or group, in the twelve months prior to Census Night.
Describes whether a dwelling is owned, being purchased or rented. Dwellings occupied under a life tenure scheme can be considered as being owned.
Family Composition classifies families into different types. When classifying families into different types, information about temporarily absent family members is used.
No provision has been made in Family Composition to classify family members outside the family nucleus. For example, in a family which contains a couple and their dependent children, plus a parent of one of the couple, the latter would be recorded as an 'other related individual'. Identification of such persons within a family is done by means of 'Relationship in household' (RLHP) data.
