Migration & Movement in Maylands
How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.
Over half of all residents in Maylands have moved house in the last five years. This high level of mobility, combined with a large number of recent overseas arrivals, makes the area much more transient than most of Australia.
Moving home
People who moved in the last five years.
About 52.3% of people moved home in the last five years, a figure far above the Western Australian average of 39.0% and the national figure of 40.7%. This is among the highest rates of movement seen in similar areas.
Arrivals from overseas
Overseas-born residents who arrived recently.
Recent overseas arrivals make up 17.4% of the population, which is much higher than most areas. This is well above the 10.6% seen across Western Australia and a little above the Australian average of 14.5%.
