SA4 based data for Ancestry by Country of Birth of Parents, in Place of Enumeration Profile (PEP), 2016 Census. Count of responses and persons (excluding overseas visitors) in the following categories with corresponding ancestry: both parents born overseas, father born overseas, mother born overseas, both parents born in Australia, parents birthplace not stated. The list of ancestries consists of the most common 30 Ancestry responses reported in the 2011 Census. This is a multi-response dataset and therefore the total responses count will not equal the total persons count. If two responses from one person are categorised in the 'Other' category only one response is counted. If either or both parents birthplace is not stated then a single response is tallied in the 'not stated' category. The data is by SA4 2016 boundaries. Periodicity: 5-Yearly. Note: There are small random adjustments made to all cell values to protect the confidentiality of data. These adjustments may cause the sum of rows or columns to differ by small amounts from table totals. For more information visit the data source: http://www.abs.gov.au/census.
