    Mackay's Childcare Heroes: A Ranking of Suburbs by Proportion of Cared-for Children, According to the 2021 Census

    The proportion of people (aged 15 and over) who reported that they took care of any children without pay in the two weeks prior to the 10th of August on the 2021 Australian Census.

    The Cared for children data can be useful for property investors and those looking to move as it provides insights into the livability of a suburb. For families with children, knowing the proportion of people who take care of children without pay can indicate the availability of childcare services and the level of community support for families. Suburbs with a high proportion of people caring for children may also have a more family-friendly atmosphere and offer more opportunities for children to socialize and engage in activities. On the other hand, suburbs with a low proportion of people caring for children may be less suitable for families with young children. Property investors can use this data to identify suburbs with high demand for family-friendly housing and potentially higher rental yields. Overall, the Cared for children data can provide valuable insights into the social fabric of a suburb and its suitability for families with children.     Data from 2020
