Area: Denmark (Council (LGA))

Nearly 60% of people in Denmark report having no religion, a figure far higher than across the state or nation. This shift reflects a significant change in the local community, as the number of non-religious residents has climbed steadily in recent years.

About 59.3% of residents have no religion, which is far above the national figure of 38.9% and rose 18 points since 2011. Christianity is the next most common affiliation at 26.0%, while Buddhism is followed by other religions and Judaism.
