The Australian Treasury’s Orwellian Centre for Population released its 2024 Population Statement, which forecast that ongoing high immigration will add 4.1 million residents over the next 10 years—most of whom will live in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth.
“Australia’s population is projected to grow from 27.1 million people in March 2024 to 31.3 million people by 2034–35. This is slightly higher than projected in last year’s Population Statement”.
Over the decade to 2034, Melbourne’s population is projected to balloon by one million people to 6.5 million, whereas Sydney’s is projected to swell by 900,000 people to 6.5 million.
