Migration & Movement in Unley
How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.
More than 40% of Unley residents have moved house in the last five years, though the share of recent overseas arrivals has fallen since 2011. This high turnover makes the area much more mobile than most similar places. A strong international presence remains, with one in five people arriving from abroad recently.
Moving home
People who moved in the last five years.
About 40.6% of people moved here in the last five years, which is much higher than most areas. This is well above the South Australian figure of 36.9% and is almost exactly the same as the national average.
Arrivals from overseas
Overseas-born residents who arrived recently.
Recent overseas arrivals make up 20.7% of the population, a figure well above both the state (15.1%) and national (14.5%) levels. However, this proportion has fallen from 24.8% in 2011.
