The latest census revealed Sydney had more higher density dwellings than other Australian cities and that the number of private dwellings has decreased.
“In the five years since the 2006 census, the percentage of separate houses in Sydney has fallen from 60.9 per cent of all private dwellings to 58.9 per cent as high housing costs encourage the move to more densely populated communities.”
