Australian Migration Data: Historical and Current Trends

This dataset includes nine CSV files used to create visualizations on migration trends in Australia. It offers both historical and current migration statistics, with a focus on countering biased narratives in mainstream discussions about immigration.

Sourced from reputable Australian government agencies like the ABS, the data covers various aspects of Australia’s population and migration, from convict transportation to recent overseas migration patterns. By combining historical and contemporary data, the visualizations highlight how migration has shaped Australia's demographic landscape.

The goal of this collection is to challenge the misinformed and biased discussions about immigration often seen in the media, politics, and social media, encouraging readers to critically reassess their beliefs and consider whether they are based on evidence or prejudice.
