The Census is coming this August
The Census is a national count of every person and household in Australia.
Census data helps inform decisions that impact you and your community, from schools, healthcare, transport and infrastructure to local services.
This year, you can complete your Census as soon as you receive your instructions if you know where you’ll be on Census night, Tuesday 11 August 2026.
