Out-migration is the number of people who move out of the area each year. It covers moves abroad and moves to other parts of the country. This page shows total out-migration over time and a breakdown by age and sex.
Estimated figures come from the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
In projected years, out-migration rates are applied first. Migration balancing then adjusts the result so all parts stay in line.
Out-migration is one of the four parts of how the population changes. Along with deaths, it takes people away from the area. The gap between in-migration and out-migration is net migration. Net migration is often the main driver of local growth or decline.
