Migration & Movement in Nichols Point
How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.
More stable households define Nichols Point, where residents are much less likely to have moved recently than those in other parts of the country. While few people have changed homes lately, a growing number of new arrivals from overseas are settling in the area.
Moving home
People who moved in the last five years.
Only 32.6% of residents moved house in the last five years, which is well below the national figure of 40.7%. This reflects a downward trend for the area, as the proportion of people moving fell by 7.3 percentage points since 2011.
Arrivals from overseas
Overseas-born residents who arrived recently.
Recent arrivals from overseas make up 12.1% of the population, a figure that is much higher than in most similar areas. This represents a significant increase from 2011, though it remains a little below the Australian average of 14.5%.
