Small Area Population Statistics are Census 2011 statistics produced for a range of geographical levels from state to small areas. There are three options available for viewing/downloading SAPS information.
The interactive mapping tool allows you to access SAPS through an interactive map search. SAPMAP allows users to navigate to their location of interest by using the address search facility or by pinpointing a location on the map. They can then select the geographic boundary they are interested in and access all of the 2011 Census tables that have been produced for that area. These tables can also be downloaded in pdf or excel format.
There are 46 Small Area Population Statistics (SAPS) tables organised into the following 15 themes.
