In 2021, 55,675 people who were living in Central Coast NSW, were born overseas and 9.1% arrived in Australia within the last 5 years prior to 2021.

The Year of Arrival data records when the overseas born population arrived in Australia. The data shows the degree to which areas are 'ports' for new overseas arrivals and reveals the role of Central Coast NSW in housing newer or older migrant groups.

Year of Arrival data should be looked at in conjunction with Age Structure - most people migrate to another country when they are relatively young.

Please note, for this topic only, where 'Total population' is selected as a benchmark, this refers to the total overseas-born population in the area. People not born overseas do not have a year of arrival.

Q:
