Port Macquarie-Hastings Council has made available a new interactive social and demographic profile database, which will assist with decision making and planning for both the community and Council.

Council purchased the products from Informed Decisions (i.d.), demographic and census data experts who understand public policy and local government decision-making.  The databases provide raw data covering social research, geography, economics, urban and housing analysis for our region.

Community Profile

This database provides census information about our local area. This census data is updated as information is released by the ABS and can be easily incorporated into planning documents, presentations, community analysis and funding applications.

Community Atlas

The second product is an on-line based social atlas presenting maps of Census population characteristics. Mapped at the smallest level possible, these maps will help to identify pockets of difference and disadvantage across our region.
