Sydney, capital of New South Wales and one of Australia's largest cities, is best known for its harbourfront Sydney Opera House, with a distinctive sail-like design. Massive Darling Harbour and the smaller Circular Quay port are hubs of waterside life, with the arched Harbour Bridge and esteemed Royal Botanic Garden nearby. Sydney Tower’s outdoor platform, the Sky walk, offers 360-degree views of the city and suburbs. There are many problems in Sydney Australia but the main one which could eventually be a major problem is overpopulation. Sydney since 1971 to 2000 increased 1 million which may not seem like a lot but that a bunch of people. The things that is most worrisome is the fact in half that time another million will be added to sydney's population. Over the course of 20-25 more years sydney's population will grow 2 million which will make sydney's population close to 7 million. …show more content…
By doing this it would keep the population down and possibly save the city for over population. If not doing that is could result in people not having the food supply or water supply they need. You could also just run people out of the city or make it to where no one else except residents can settle there. This would help the population by keeping non residents from settling in the city. Birth control would also solve the problem or at least help by keeping the population
The suburb of Pyrmont on the shores of Sydney Harbour has been transformed by the processes of urban renewal into a thriving cosmopolitan residential area, an efficient and sophisticated business centre, and a popular recreational and tourist hub. Through my own observation of the Pyrmont area, I have seen how the painstaking urban planning efforts for the area have come to fruition, and a focal point of the Harbour foreshore created as a result of this.
With the population of 43,374 (2011 census) and growth rate increasing (average annual rate of 2.2%), Blacktown City is recognised to be the largest and one of the fastest growing in any Local Government Area in NSW. Anticipated to reach 500, 000 by the year 2031 from factors of urban sprawl, birth and migrants, the struggle to uphold Blacktown’s liveability is a crucial aspect in the demands of the futures security of individuals and the general publics ‘contentment which is also significant to sustain the expanding population. Effective management strategies that manage issues in relation to economics, environments and social aspects that ensure the advancements of economic prosperity, social stability, educational opportunities, cultural, entertainment and recreation possibilities must be put to plan so no consequences arise with the suspected increase of the population and managing urban sprawl.
Apart from the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge all other famous places which are stated above were situated within the Melbourne city, which is the second hugely populated city of Australia.

Gentrification and Displacement issue in Sydney In regard to gentrification and displacement trend, the phenomenon has become a significant attention in Australia and more specifically in Sydney context. The evidences revealed that the displacement rate from neighbourhoods that had been gentrified in metropolitan cities (such as Melbourne and Sydney) are approximately 50% higher than the out-movement rate in other areas. (AHURI, 2011). In respect to property owners, gentrification can bring benefit of raising house prices, yet it becomes the burden of increasing property taxation levels.
Since the beginning of civilising Australia, the Aboriginal people have been troubled and trapped into an unfamiliar world, ever since the devastating European Invasion of Australia, which took place in the year of 1788. Along with the settlement of the English people to Australia, several diseases were brought which dramatically decreased the population of the native-aboriginals. Statistics state that between the years of ‘1788 to 1900’, the indigenous population of Australia was decreased by a devasting percentage of 90%. Some of the diseases which were brought, such as smallpox, tuberculosis, influenza, measles, whooping cough and the common cold as well. As time passed, the British continued to expand and colonise Australia whilst driving
Sydney may be the capital of New South Wales, but that’s not all there is to this city. It’s home to several fabulous suburbs like Kensington where there is much to do and to see. Sydney itself has a population of almost 400,000 people. More than 11,000 of the 400,000 live in Kensington.

In his article ‘One Big Happy Family’ (The Australian, 31 October, 2009, p. 58), Bernard Salt talks about his concerns regarding the expanding growth in Australia’s population. He discusses how an increased population will effect and enhance pressure on the everyday living in Australia. Also, how water, power, jobs and the environment are being influenced in Australia.
Another thing that countries could try in order to decrease the overpopulation is increase the focus they put on their women. Developing countries tend to have higher rates in childbirth the ration to parents to kids are higher. The more children that people have the more children that can go to work , bring in money or cook and clean around the household. Women and girls in these countries have little to no education. They have to stay at home and raise their children or help out with brothers and sisters.Women that live in countries like the United States and Canada have low birth rates and tend to wait until they are older to have children if they have any.These women are bought up to go to school and then further their education.After
In attempts to consolidate a distinctive Chinese territory, Sydney’s Chinatown was, although to a lesser extent compared to other countries, once deemed to be a marginalised vice quarter and migrant ghetto, whose function was to act as an intellectual boundary between ‘us’ and ‘them’. Modern Australia came into being based not just on the exclusion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, but also of other non-white peoples, namely Asians and the Chinese. As such, anti-Chinese racism was the dominant driving force in the lead-up towards federation in 1901, which also saw the official instalment of the White Australia Policy. It was an effective, albeit xenophobic, effort to curb the growth of a “half-caste population”, whose target
This is due to the various factors that are included in this public policy debate; infrastructure, welfare, infertility, education, resources, migration, economics, identity and an ageing population are some of the many. Population Policy can be defined as strategy that government seeks to anticipate and respond to population trends and predictions in the future, the aim is to also influence factors of population in order to intentionally alter the size or nature of the population (National Population Council, 1992, pp. 9). The current issue with population policy in Australia, is the discussion between creating a ‘Big Australia’ or a ‘Sustainable Population’. No doubt Australia is on a rise, with one birth every 1 minute and 44 seconds, one death every 3 minutes and 17 seconds, and one international migration every 2
Australia’s population is currently 23.8 million and is still growing. In 1960 it was 10 million and at this rate it is expected to reach 42 million by 2050. The population growth and natural increase rate of Australia is affected by The Baby Bonus and Paid Parental Leave and the ageing population structure and The Pension, as well as the current spatial distribution of Australia with policies such as Satellite Cities. Using these policies and statistics the optimum population for Australia is 25 million. There is no clear right or wrong answer to the optimum population; it all depends on the opinions of Australians.

Population is now being greatly realized as a principle element of regional or local economic development.(此处有reference) Understanding the role that population play in a regional or local area is significant as well as effective to facilitate economic growth and organize economic activities. This report is to collect and illustrate the data in relation to population of Tasmania including but not limited to population pyramid, employment, transportation etc. Afterwards, a population projection for the year 2030 will be given to Tasmania, followed by identification of a series of planning implications and recommendations.
