Wyong Shire Community Profile

The Community Profile provides easy-to-use socio-economic and population data for Wyong Shire and 25 sub-areas.

See the profile for a better understanding of our community - who we are, what we do, how we live and how the Shire is changing.

The profile includes comparative date for Gosford City, the Central Coast, Sydney Statistical Division and NSW. Information is also provided from the 2006, 2001,1996 and 1991 Censuses.

Social Atlas
Just about everything you've ever wanted to know about the Wyong Shire and Gosford City is available on this social atlas and profile of the area. 

It provides comprehensive statistics and easy-to-read analysis on population growth, demographics, families, education, employment, health, housing, travel and other information relevant to Wyong and Gosford local government areas.

The profile was initiated by Wyong and Gosford councils, and is a joint project between both Councils, Central Coast Health and the University of Newcastle, Ourimbah Campus.
