The supplied bar chart above represents the data about people living in rural, urban and town who born in Australia or outside of state between 1995 and 2010.
The bar charts give data about
people
who live in the countryside, city and town, and present information on their birth location over a period
of 15 years (1995-2010) in Australia
.
Overall
, it is clear that
, whether born in or outside Australia
, people
living in cities accounted for the largest proportion of the Australian population in both 1995 and 2010, and showed an upward trend throughout the period
. By contrast
, the percentages of residents
who lived in towns and rural areas showed a downward trend from 1995 to 2010.
In 1995, local people
living in cities constituted about 50% of the total population and then
rose to around 65% in 2010. Over the same period
, the figure for residents
from foreign nations who lived in cities grew from 60% in 1995 to 80% in 2010. At the same time, the figure for foreigners was consistently higher than the number of people
who were born in the region.
A dramatic decline can be seen in the proportions of both towns and countryside residents
from 1995 to 2010. It was particularly noticeable for people
living in rural areas, falling from 30% to approximately 15% and from 40% to roughly 5% for people
born in Australia
and outside Australia
respectively. Over the same period

experienced a slight decline, both locals and foreigners saw a 5% decrease.Submitted by tfhe1112 on
