What are our assumptions?
Other assumptions
Fertility rates: The current fertility rate in Rural East is lower than Southern Grampians Shire. The overall rate is expected to rise in the short term from 2.06 in 2001 to 2.33 by 2006 before gradually decreasing to 2.32 by 2021, although there is expected to be lower rates of births in younger ages and marginally higher rates in older ages.
Death rates: The death rates are based on historical estimates for Southern Grampians Shire, which have been extrapolated into the future, assuming an increase in expectation of life in all age groups (except 85+). Although women are still forecast to outlive men, the increase in the expectation of life over time for men is expected to be higher compared to women.
Non-private dwellings: The number of persons in non-private dwellings is forecast to remain stable at 46 between 2001 and 2021. Non-private dwellings of note in the area as of 2001 include:
