Your feedback is very important to us, we'd love to know what you think of the Hunter New England Resource. Please feel free to complete our online survey.

The 2005 Local Government Area amalgamations resulted in a change to a proportion of Local Government Areas in the Hunter New England region. Through merger and/or boundary change, the number of local government areas in the Hunter New England region changed from 33 to 25. These tables represent the Local Government Areas that existed prior to the 2005 amalgamation. Population estimates of the new Local Government Areas will become available with the next census.

Rider: The information presented in this resource result from analyses of a variety of social and health focused datasets. These datasets originate from a variety of sources including Hunter New England Health, the NSW Department of Health, and the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The timing of the release of these data to third parties is controlled by the owner of these data. It is therefore possible for these organisations to publish data that they have not yet made available to Hunter New England Population Health for analysis and release. Users should therefore check the publications of these organisations as it is possible that they may have published even more up to date information on Hunter New England than those available in this resource. As this resource is an ongoing project, the indicators presented will be updated as soon as possible after the release of all datasets to Hunter New England Population Health.
