SEIFA in Redfern (2016)

Where does Redfern sit on the socio-economic spectrum? The SEIFA score below is sourced from the most recent ABS Census and expressed as an Australia-wide decile, so a decile of 8 means Redfern is in the top 30% of Australian suburbs by socio-economic advantage. The City of Sydney LGA context shows whether Redfern is above or below the average for its local government area.

SEIFA scores are area averages and can mask significant internal variation within a single postcode. In postcodes like 2016 that cover multiple distinct streets or precincts, the SEIFA score reflects the blend. If part of Redfern is significantly more advantaged than another, the average SEIFA decile will sit somewhere in between, not fully representative of either end. For a micro-area view, the ABS TableBuilder tool allows you to access Census variables at the mesh-block level.
