On 28 March 2008 at 22:02:48 (Canberra time), the resident population of Australia is projected to be and increasing:
21,257,640
The Australian population hit 21 million on June 29, 2007, seconds after 9.33pm, Australian eastern standard time. The population milestone announced by the Australian Bureau of Statistics was based on the estimated resident population on December 31, 2006, and assumed growth since then of one birth every 1 minute and 56 seconds, one death every 3 minutes and 59 seconds, and a net gain of one international migrant every 3 minutes and 15 seconds, leading to an overall total population increase of one person every 1 minute and 45 seconds.
The Australian population is growing quickly: Australia’s population has increased each year since the end of World War II, due to a combination of high post-war fertility and high levels of migration. In 1901, 23% of Australia’s population was born overseas. By 1947 the proportion of the overseas-born population had declined to 10%. Each year more and more people come over to Australia and start families so it is slowly growing ad by 2015 we are looking towards 24 million people.
