South Spreyton · Suburb / Locality
Where people and their families come from — the ancestries they identify with and where they were born.
A very strong sense of local roots defines South Spreyton, where nearly 9 in 10 residents were born in Australia. This makes the area much less diverse than the rest of the state and the country.
The ancestries people most identify with.
Most people here claim Australian ancestry (53.5%) or English ancestry (43.8%). Scottish, Irish, and German roots also make up a small part of the local mix.
Australia and the largest overseas communities.
Only 8.9% of people were born overseas, which is far below the national figure of 27.7% and well below the Tasmanian average. The vast majority were born in Australia (88.4%), with small numbers from England and New Zealand.
