Households form the common 'economic unit' in our society. The Northern Beaches Council's Household Income is one of the most important indicators of socio-economic status. With other data sources, such as Educational Qualifications and Occupation, it helps to reveal the economic opportunities and socio-economic status of the overseas-born population in the Northern Beaches Council.
Income for the overseas-born population may be lower or higher than the total population. Some areas with many recent migrants, particularly students and refugees, may have lower incomes, though if they are sponsored business migrants the effect may be the opposite. This topic helps quantify the difference between the incomes of Australian and overseas-born for the area, to assist in targeting services to these communities.
