Migration & Movement in Gundagai
How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.
Fewer people are moving into Gundagai than in other regions, yet nearly half of those arriving from overseas have come recently. This combination creates a local population that is more stable in its long-term residency but sees a significant recent surge in international arrivals.
Moving home
People who moved in the last five years.
Only 31.3% of residents moved here in the last five years, which is well below the national figure of 40.7%. This tendency to stay put has grown over time, as the share of recent movers fell by 8.2 percentage points since 2011.
Arrivals from overseas
Overseas-born residents who arrived recently.
Almost half of the overseas-born population—47.8%—arrived in the last five years, a figure far above the New South Wales average of 14.9%. This is a sharp increase from 2011, when only 9.2% of arrivals were recent.
