Mount Druitt Suburbs Increase Population by over 10,000 in 5 years - ABS Census 2016 - How Did Your Suburb Fair?

Image result for australian bureau of statistics

Keeping records of the Australian Bureau of Statistics Population Census, with suburbs considered under Mount Druitt by State Seat and also under my own determination and advice of others, has shown an overall increase of  10,073.

There has been sudden increases in the new suburb of Colebee with 1931 population and a sudden major population increase since the last ABS Survey 2011 was Rope Crossing, with the settlement of the  new housing estate increased population by 4,692.

Surprisingly, a lot of us would have thought the next sudden increase would have been Mount Druitt suburb population increase of 932 with new units and town house being built, but it was Rooty Hill with an extra 1,327 population and development  in this area have increased with new housing estates as well as low to median density housing developments.

Then Plumpton had an increase of 965 population , another major population hub as more families move into this area.

A suburb that had a dramatic increase in population is Hebersham of 247 new people in the area. This is one of the  high priced suburbs in Mount Druitt and in high demand for property purchases.

Following Hebersham, is Minchinbury with an increase of 166 population, Lethbridge Park with 97 new population, Emerton with increase of 58, Whalan with  increase of 48 and Blackett increase of 35. There was small increases in population with Dharruk 9 and Oakhurst with 2 more population.

Then comes the suburbs that  population trends  away from themselves: Tregear population decrease of 30, Wilmott 48, Shalvey 50 and Bidwill 308.

The real increase of population was 10,073, which represents a 10.04% increase in population from the abs Census conducted in 2011 to the 2016 Abs Census. At this rate we will have approximately 110,693 population  by the next Census due 2021. Also in 25 years time, we will be reaching  a population of  approximately over 150,000-160,00. Isn't that surprising?

Opal Fares Unfrozen Again Due To CPI Increase - Will They Ever Go Down If CPI Decteases?

Image result for opal card logoSo, after the Opal electronic public transport ticketing system was launched, we have had only one fare increase.

Image result for nsw ipart logoNow we are facing another fare increase starting as from 1st July 2017 based on CPI (Consumer Price Index) increase. Which makes it easy to raise fares up from NSW IPART (Independent Pricing And Regulatory Tribunal.

Although a majority of fares have been frozen until July 2017, since May 2015.

A 2.4 percent increase will be made across the board an no free services after 8 trips as origunally promoted, that launched the Opal Electronic ticketing system

My question is when the CPI decreases, will public train and bus fares decrease in line with the CPI decreases? It doesn't matter which Government is in, you never hear of transport fares decreasing. You hear of  transport fares freezing, to lengthen the time of when fares increase. Businesses are saying the more the consumer uses the product or service, the more competitive price.

So with more train and buses public transport users that means less it should be less costs to public transport commuter users.

According  to the Australian CPI to March Quarter 2017 is actually increase of 2.1%  not 2.4% Click here from ABS figures.  So really the fares are being overcharged to us by 0.3%. I don't understand where NSW IPART get their figures from.

ABS Online Crash on 9th August 2016 - Solution For The Future

Image result for Australian bureau of StatisticsWith the announcement on the first attempt to provide an online service for the Australian population on the Australian Bureau of Statistics(ABS), doing the important survey came the crash of the network on on the 9th August 2016.

So thousands on thousands of people could not complete it online and are waiting their turn in doing so or even waiting for a paper document to be sent to them (rather than fill it online).

Here is a note from the ABS website on what has happened:

2016 Census 9 August online form outage update On 9 August, the ABS was subjected to an attempt to frustrate its collection of Census data. Census security was not compromised and no data was lost. The events varied in nature and severity, and led the ABS to adopt a very cautious approach in relation to the 2016 Census online form. 

Click here for ABS website 

So, I have a pretty much a very simple solution, for the next online  ABS survey and that is instead of making a majority of our population, should be provide different days to upload and complete their survey. For example we have a population of over 24,000,000 - divide that over 10 days, so that there is  minimum 2,500,000 entries of traffic on the website, which eases the flow of traffic to the ABS website.

When issuing 16 digit numbers being sent to households, allocate numbers starting with  0 to commence on the first day, numbers starting with 1 on the second day and so on. It is just a way to alleviate the trafficking of  survey being completing on one major day.
