Number of dwellings 1991 = 5,852,246 Number of dwellings 2011 = 9,117,033
Number of adults 1991 = 12,711,312 Number of adults 2011 = 17,245,436
Adults per dwelling 1991 = 2.17 Adults per dwelling 2011 = 1.89
The number of adults in each home has dropped 15%. I believe this is because adult children are increasingly leaving their parent's homes to establish new households for themselves, which suggests an improvement in affordability overall.
Review the post for clarification. And you will see that was so.
PS: Glad you seem to be getting the "you're" and "your" thing sorted. (At least to the point where you've dropped pushing it anyway.)
Ok, wrong person.
Apologies for typos as they obviously bother you... and pointing out yours... jist thought it was funny to be lectured by someone while he made his own mistakes end enjoyed pointing out the irony.

You are assuming they are buying, not renting...
I dont see conclusive evidence that these people are buyjng property when they move out of their parent's home.

Mistakes? I surely do make them.
But not that time.
As I said: When you're (abbreviation for "you are") in a hole of your (denoting ownership/possession by you) own making stop digging.

No assumptions. They're forming new households, and those could be renting households or owning households. But either way, they're able to afford to move out of the parent's home, and the parents they leave behind are obviously able to afford their own homes too without the extra income from their adult children who have moved out. It seems like in the past there were a lot more adult children still at living at home contributing to the household income, but now because of improved affordability they can afford to move out earlier.

There's so many holes in that hypothesis that there's simply no even half self respecting bull on this forum I can think of who'd pick it up and attempt to run with it.
Which is why I don't even call bull sock - Just a shite stirrer ...
Anyway, I've got to go and do some calcs on the overall lineal meters of 70 x 35 MGP12 roof battens I need on my current project.
So toodle pip 'n good luck with your hypothesising ...

More like the exact opposite of what your saying. In the old days people moved out early, because they could afford too, they had kids early because they could afford to and bought houses younger because it was more affordable.
These days more and more are living at home, these are the facts. More and more these days are not moving out because they cannot afford to. Jobs arendissapearing, wages are stagnating and falling for some. They are buying investment properties and living at home with mum and dad and hoping somebody else can pay it off. Investors are the first to bail, and these days they have flooded the market and so has the amount of rental property as a result.
I thought your stats were interesting. And have often wondered about these.
While we can see the stats up to 1991 show us that adults per dwelling was 2.17, what it does not show us is the ratio since then. Since 1991, it shows that population had increased by around 4.4 million people, and dwellings had increased by around 3.3 million. So the ratio since 1991, shows adults per dwelling has been 1.33. Almost a dwelling per person. With record building now going on, it now appears we are building more units in Sydney and Melbourne alone than the adult population is actually increasing.
You only need to look in the sqm link at the top of the page. Look at rental vacancy rates for each capital city. If you look at the current numbers for each and then scroll the graph all the way to the left, you will see the eye opening reality.

Or that because of cost of living people are having less children, what do you think?
You and the grey man must go to the same school of deception!
Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
