Migration & Movement in Jordan
How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.
More than half of the people in Jordan have moved house in the last five years, making it a highly mobile area. This shift means a constant flow of new residents into the community, though the proportion of people arriving from overseas has dropped sharply since 2011.
Moving home
People who moved in the last five years.
About 52% of residents moved here within the last five years, a figure far above the Australian average of 40.7%. This is among the highest rates of movement for similar areas, despite a slight fall of 2.9 points since 2011.
Arrivals from overseas
Overseas-born residents who arrived recently.
Recent arrivals from overseas make up 10.8% of the population, which is well below the national figure of 14.5%. This represents a significant decline from 2011, when 41.6% of the community had recently arrived from abroad.
