Socio-economic advantage

SEIFA indexes ranking relative advantage and disadvantage.

Overall advantage in the area is lower than about 70% of all areas. While access to money and resources is higher than about 50% of similar places, the area's low standing in education and job skills helps explain its lower overall advantage score.

ABS Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage, 2021, as a national decile: 1 = among the 10% most disadvantaged areas in Australia, 10 = among the 10% most advantaged.

ABS Index of Economic Resources, 2021, as a national decile: 1 = among the 10% lowest areas for economic resources in Australia, 10 = among the highest. IER reflects the income, housing costs, dwelling size and assets of households, so a higher decile means relatively greater economic resources.
