| (a) Occupied private dwellings and vacant private dwellings. Private dwellings include structural dwellings (e.g. houses, flats, townhouses) and temporary dwellings (e.g. tents, caravans). Non-private dwellings are excluded (e.g. hotels, hospitals, boarding schools, mining camps). |
| (b) Defined by the Department of Local Government and Planning for the purposes of regional planning; these are constructed based on units of the 2011 edition of the Australian Standard Geographical Classification (ASGC). |
| (c) Regional planning project area and Queensland figures include LGAs with a predominantly Indigenous population for which dwelling projections were not specifically undertaken. |
| (d) Occupancy rate is calculated by dividing the total population (including those in non-private dwellings) by the number of private dwellings (occupied and vacant) . |
| (e) The 2006 figure is an estimate based on estimated resident population (ERP). |
| (f) Excludes dwelling projections for the additional Census Collection District (3141706) included in the Toowoomba portion of this regional planning project area, as it is located in an area earmarked for industrial activity. |
| (g) Queensland figures may not equal the sum of components because of rounding and inclusion of LGAs excluded from regional planning project areas. |
| Caution |
| These dwelling projections have been prepared using the latest available information at the time of preparation. |
| Accuracy to the last digit of these projections should not be assumed. Variation above or below the figures provided is to be expected, because projections rely on the accuracy of the assumptions used, as well as the quality of data on which they are based. |
