Suburb - Demographics

Age + income — bundle

Who lives in the suburb, from the census: population by age bracket and gender, and households by income bracket.

Two calls bundled, priced as the sum. Tenure, employment, family make-up, schooling and the rest of the Suburb - Demographics family are separate.

Exact suburb identifier required. Exact ABS Suburb and Locality (SAL) name, e.g. Burwood (NSW) — many suburbs carry a state suffix. If starting from free text or an unverified bare name, first call GET /v1/geocode/suburb?q=<text>, then use the exact data[].area_name it returns. Suburb data endpoints do not guess a state or typo-correct names.

Price: 6¢ per call.
